-The first player stands in the circle and throws the small colored ball called “cochonnet” (small pig). The cochonnet must land at distance of minimum of 4 meters and maximum 10 meters, depending on how experienced the players are.

-The same player then throws his/her pétanque ball aiming to land as close to the cochonnet as possible.

-Now it is the turn of the opposing team to throw their first pétanque ball aiming to come closer to the cochonnet and/or to hit the opposing teams pétanque ball to make it go further away from the cochonnet.

-The team that has it’s pétanque balls the furthest away from the cochonnet continues to play until they are closer than the other team or have run out of pétanque ball.

-The game ends when none of the teams have no more balls in hand.

-The team that has the pétangue ball closest to the cochonnet wins the round and gets 1 point for every ball that is closer to the cochonnet than the opponent’s balls. First team to hit 13 points wins the tournament.
