This is where #petanque dreams in #Trafford are made. Someone once said in our 1st year as a club, "It will fail, nobody will want to play that game". But thanks to the hard work from a dedicated team, this place comes alive multiple times a week to give life to this great #sport
This weekend Trafford Pétanque played an away match against The Healey in a #Rochdale Boules League fixture. Trafford came out top on the day, putting us in a good position in the league overall. Our team's experience, training and game plan paid off. Well done team #petanque
3/3 Unfortunately, for most of our players, qualification wasn't to be. However this experience has not dampened our spirits, only fired us up to continue our development and compete consistently at a higher level.
