An Ancient Game Brings Teens Together
February 11, 2021
Minnechaug’s Student Council held the annual Special Olympics of Massachusetts bocce tournament in the high school’s gymnasium Wednesday, Feb. 10. In previous years, the tournament was held statewide, but because of COVID regulations individuals schools are holding their own events this year. ‘Chaug will hold two more bocce days on the two Wednesdays following winter break. Bocce is an ancient game that is believed to have been invented in 5,000 BC.

I agree with Mazzuca Bocce is pretty fun as well and cool as to how ancient the game really is, happy to see the tournament happen again even with covid restrictions making it difficult this year.

I think it’s pretty cool how people still play bocce to this day.
