If you’re not a DC Bocce League player by now, why not?
Did you know that you can win weekly contests after your bocce game at our sponsor bars? Have you heard that you don’t need to break a sweat to participate in this rec league? Maybe you just haven’t found the right DC Bocce location to sign up for? If that’s the case, then check out the DC Bocce League summer season, featuring four new 2015 locations:
- Ballston Tuesdays: Play bocce at Maury Park at 6:30 or 7:30 and then roll over to Carpool for post-game specials, bar-based competition and sponsored prizes.
- NEW Downtown DC Tuesdays: Bocce games are played at Franklin Sq. Park at 7:00 and are followed by happy hour at BlackFinn Pub.
- NEW Petworth Tuesdays: Bocce at Raymond Rec Center at 6:30 or 7:30 and then roll to Wonderland Ballroom for Taco Tuesdays and karaoke upstairs.
- Capitol Hill Wednesdays: Garfield Park plays host to bocce games at 6:30 and 7:30. Capitol Lounge hosts players after games with food and drink specials.
- NEW Columbia Pike Wednesdays: Play bocce at Walter Reed Rec Center at 7:00; Socialize and participate in a weekly gift card raffle at P. Brennan’s after games.
- NEW Alexandria Thursdays: Play on the new bocce court at the new Braddock Interim Park at 6:30 or 7:30 and then hit King Street after games.
- Dupont Thursdays: Roll at Rose Park at 6:30 and 7:30 and party at Irish Whiskey after games.
Driven by the desire to make friends out of strangers and fueled by Peroni & Blue Moon specials, DC Bocce League offers weekly bocce ball matches played between multi-person, co-ed teams.
The game isn’t difficult; just about anyone who can palm a ball can have fun playing. Plus, unlike most other sports, you stand on the same side of the court as your opponents, so socializing is the norm — what better way to distract the competition than with a well-crafted ball joke?
If this sounds like the game for you, head over to DC Bocce League’s website to register your team or sign up as a free agent and be matched with a team. Register for the summer season for $50 when you enter promo-code ROLL20 during check out. The summer season runs from July 20 through September 12.
