Boccia athletes are governed by the rules the National Disabled Sports Association.

A Bocce ramp can be used by an athlete in lieu of tossing the ball. The ramp can be manually moved by the athlete or, in some cases, the athlete uses an assistant to move the ramp into position, giving only verbal or gesticulative cues on where to move the ramp.

Boccia is an excellent game of strategy and skill and many of the contests are very exciting. The Boccia season generally runs from September to December.
