Basketball, but bent rims; football, but to dangerous to play outside, baseball, but no field. These are games my students see everyday on TV but what about things to do with all of the family? Showing the students a lifetime sport that everyone can afford and enjoy as a family is what sets this gift apart from the other games. Enjoying the outside with family and still providing the level of competition and hand eye coordination necessary to build their skills. Social Activity So whether you are going head to head with a friend or playing with a whole squad, bocce encourages coming together with friends. Social engagement contributes to increased quality of life and longer lifespan. Strategic Planning You can’t just chuck your bocce ball down the court the court and expect to win. More than just a game of brute strength, bocce requires you to calculate factors like velocity and distance. Engaging your brain while exercising helps stave off dementia and keeps you sharp. Improved Coordination Bocce requires you to muster up your hand-eye coordination before each throw. Practice releasing the ball it exactly the right moment in your release and try to get it as close to the jack as possible! Relieves Stress Wiling away a nice afternoon outside with some friends or family and light physical activity is a great way to relieve your stress levels. Exercise and social activity lower stress levels!
