Picture this…

The sun is setting on a warm summer night.  You’re looking at the mountains to the north — and the chill of ocean air drifts by.

You’re with incredible Palisadians — from 25 to 70 and every age in between.

It’s a party on the best bocce courts in Southern California.

After bocce, you scoot up to Hanks, or Casa Nostra, or somewhere else to celebrate with your fantastic team.

That’s what’s happening every single Tuesday and Thursday nights at in the Sunset League — and it’s been a runaway hit!

There have been 965 Palisadians playing in leagues in the past year!

Teams from neighborhoods.  From the schools in town.  From the churches and synagogues.  From town organizations and businesses.  Palisadians that just signed up and we put on a team.

Here’s what’s amazing.  Many of teams started as a group of complete strangers.  Now they’re cheering for each other, and going out to eat & drink together after the matches as pals.

No previous bocce experience necessary.  You can learn as you go.  You’ll be a star in no time.  Snappy awards for the winning teams.  Lots of other charming little extras along the way. 

Palisades Bocce League.  Celebrating the best of what it means to be a Palisadian.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many players should be on a team?

8-12.  This way, you’re likely to have 6 always coming to a given league match.

In a match, anywhere from 4 players to 8 players can play in a given match (maximum of 4 on each side of the court.)

You have to have 4 players for any match.

What happens if I miss a match?

It’s okay.  With 8-12 on a team, you can play as often as you’d like.  Each week, a team just has to have 4 players!  But the more the merrier…

When is the registration period over?

It’s likely you can get on a team even after the season starts.

But if you want to start a team, you need to register at least a few weeks before the start of the season.

What happens if it rains?

If a match is canceled, there will be a ‘make up’ date set.

What is the format of the matches each week?

Each match will be ‘2 out of 3’ games.  Tie-breaker if you’re tied one game a piece.  Games are to 6 points.  Tie-breaker game is to 5 points.

You must have at least 4 players for a match.  2 play on each side.  If you have more players than that, they can split up on each side of the court.

If your team isn’t on the court ready to play by 10 minutes after the start time, you forfeit one game.  After 20 minutes, you forfeit the match.

You can play with balls that we will provide, or balls that you bring.

What do I bring and wear?

Comfortable clothes.  It’s all good.  Sneakers are best.  For the ladies, you don’t want heels…

Lots of teams have snappy uniforms!

The main thing to bring is a happy attitude!  You’re going to have so much fun…
