Portland Bocce League Brings 'Open Bocce' Sessions to Pearl District's North Park Blocks

We're excited to announce a series of "Open Bocce" sessions hosted by the Portland Bocce League at the North Park Blocks courts. Starting this summer, residents and visitors are invited to enjoy this popular Italian ball sport every Saturday morning.

The "Open Bocce" sessions will take place after a maintenance session from 8:30 to 10:00 am, during which the courts will be meticulously groomed to ensure a quality playing experience. The courts will be open for play from 10:00 am until noon, providing ample time for participants to engage in friendly matches.

Participants need not worry about bringing their own equipment, as sets of balls will be readily available at each court. Whether you're a seasoned bocce player or completely new to the game, there will be plenty of knowledgeable individuals present to guide participants through the rules and strategies.

One of the highlights of these sessions is their flexibility and adaptability to accommodate varying numbers of players each week. The sessions will be organized to align with the turnout, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to engage in enjoyable matches regardless of the group size.

Bocce, a sport steeped in tradition and camaraderie, offers a unique way to connect with others in the community while enjoying the outdoors. The North Park Blocks provide a picturesque setting for this recreational activity, creating a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere for participants of all ages and skill levels.

We encourage our residents and visitors to take advantage of these "Open Bocce" sessions as an opportunity to embrace community spirit, discover a new pastime, and forge connections with fellow neighborhood enthusiasts.

So mark your calendars and join the Portland Bocce League every Saturday morning at the North Park Blocks courts. So when the sun is shining, bring your enthusiasm, and be ready for an exciting bocce experience. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player, all are welcome to participate in this delightful activity in the heart of the Pearl District.
