On course for Chengdu
Qualification for the World Games (for the 2023 and 2024 seasons), which will be held from 12 to 18 August 2025 in Chengdu (China) for boules.
World Games programme : For Pétanque, each qualified federation will send one Women's and one Men's event. In 2025 we will have one more event than in 2022 with the Women's Precision Shooting, the Men's Precision Shooting and the Mixed Doubles. The athletes will be fully supported for 6 or 7 days and, as the World Games are placed under the aegis of the International Olympic Committee, most of the National Olympic Committees will now cover all or part of their travel costs, as well as those of the so-called ‘extra-officials’ appointed by the federations - coaches, trainers, physiotherapists, masseurs.... - provided they mention this early enough. Qualified federations should not hesitate to remind their NOCs of this, as well as the fact that the World Federation (WPBF/FMBP) is now included in the official list published on the IOC website and that Pétanque & Lyonnaise are also included among the recognised disciplines - details see "read more"
