What is Boccia?
Boccia is a precision ball sport, similar to bocce, and related to bowls and pétanque. The name “boccia” is derived from the Latin word for “boss” – bottia. The sport is contested at local, national and international levels, by athletes with severe physical disabilities. It was originally designed to be played by people with cerebral palsy but now includes athletes with other severe disabilities affecting motor skills. In 1984, it became a Paralympic sport and in 2020 has 75 national sport organizations countries worldwide. Boccia is governed by the Boccia International Sports Federation (BISFed) and is one of only two Paralympic sports (along with goalball) that have no counterpart in the Olympic program.
Boccia became Paralympic sport in 1984, in the New York Paralympic Games.
It is a sport for athletes with cerebral palsy and other neurological disorders originating in the central nevus system and severe neuromuscular disorders of non-cerebral origin that affect the four limbs.
