OBJECT OF GAME	Bocce is played with 8 large bocce balls and 1 small target ball called the "PALLINO."  The object of the game is to roll the bocce ball closest to the "PALLINO."  There are 4 balls per team.  You can play with 1 to 4 persons on a team.  Two teams are stationed at same end of court for each "Frame."  Games are usually played to 12 points, but you can decide on another number.
START OF MATCH	The match shall begin with the flip of a coin between the captains from each team.  The winner of the coin flip may have the first toss of the "PALLINO," or choose the color of the balls.
PLAYING THE GAME	The player who originally tosses the "PALLINO" throws the first bocce ball. Their ball is now the closest to the "PALLINO," so the other team throws their bocce balls until they are closest to the "PALLINO."  Teams alternate like this until all bocce balls are played.  If a bocce ball hits the back board without hitting a bocce ball first, it is considered a dead ball and is taken off the court until the next "FRAME."
SCORING	The team with bocce ball closest to "PALLINO" makes 1 point for every ball that is closer to "PALLINO" than their opponent.  Teams then play another "FRAME" from the the opposite end  until reaching "GAME POINT."
