Boccia
Boccia is an indoor sport played on a 12.5m x 6m court where players aim to throw or roll their six balls as close as possible to a smaller white target ball known as the 'jack.' Matches consist of multiple rounds or 'ends,' with individual and pairs matches typically comprising four ends, while team matches involve six. Competition starts with a pool stage followed by a direct elimination phase for each disability classification.
