Shropshire Boccia Tournament 2016

Published: 10th Nov, 2016

 

We held our 4^th Shropshire Boccia Tournament this Autumn – our biggest yet. Teams from across the county competed, including teams from sheltered housing schemes and day centres; general social groups and groups of friends. Shropshire RCC’s own Musketeers and Maidens - a social group for adults with physical disabilities - competed, as did teams from our Sight Loss Opportunity Groups in Oswestry and Shrewsbury. The event was refereed by students from the various Shropshire colleges at which the Heats took place.

Competition was fierce in this extremely tactical game but great fun was had by all and our congratulations go to the Whitefriars Fillies from Ludlow who won the Gold Medals and the County cup!

The Shropshire Boccia Tournament is just one of the projects our charity operates to keep people fit, healthy and active in their local communities.  Have a look at our Boccia page for more details
