2024 has been an absolute blast! Picture this: over 250 dynamic duos, both seasoned pros and fresh faces, gathered for a whirlwind of bocce action. Round robin madness ensued, with the top two teams punching their tickets to the single-elimination showdown.

But wait, there’s more! We’re talking vibrant costumes stealing the spotlight (big shoutout to The Mustaches, reigning Costume Contest champ!), fierce competition that’ll have you on the edge of your seat, and enough laughter to power a comedy club for a year. It’s all in the quest for bocce glory across four electrifying divisions: Mens Intermediate, Mens Open, Womens, and Mixed.

We’ve found our slice of paradise at Mariner’s Point in Mission Bay, our shiny new “forever home” nestled near Belmont Park. Trust us, it’s a sight to behold, and we’re itching to make memories here for years to come. Oh, and did we mention there’s ample free parking and space to spread our bocce-loving wings?

The Premature Ejection Division was such a hit – Early eliminations? No problemo! Dive back into the action with another laid-back tournament and soak up those beachside bocce vibes.

Feeling generous? We’d love your support by donating an auction item! Whether you’ve got a grand gesture or a tiny trinket to spare, every bit helps our beloved San Diego County charities. Plus, it’s a win-win – you get to spread joy while snagging some bocce karma points.

Stay tuned as we will update plans for 2025.
