Welcome to The Eagle Ridge Bocce Ball League!

WE'RE READY TO GET ROLLING

​

While we love holding drinks & rolling balls, there are few rules, so a few friendly reminders + Bocce edicate below: 

​

• Hosting: If you are that week's host, you are the one literally unlocking the box and setting up- people cannot play if you don't do your part. Please make sure you mark your calendar for your host week! ​

​

• Weekly schedule: While your team names are very entertaining, the schedule is based on your TEAM NUMBER.  Know your team number and mark your time slot each week on the calendar.  

  • You will not play at the same time each week: Please pay attention to your game time!!! 

  • The start bell waits for no one: If 2 people are not there 5 min in, it's a forfeit- PERIOD.  

  • Use subs! There is a very robust sub list on the website- please do not forfeit!  Many people work really hard to make this league happen and give you tons of resources, forfeiting really hurts scores, rankings and just isn't fun.

​

• This year's overall vision is NEIGHBORLY LOVE. We will be keeping score & there will be a Place in the ERBocce Hall of Fame for the winners, however there are going to be secret categories your fellow neighbors will be voting for at the end of the season. 

​

WEEK ONE!  LET'S ROLL:

 

THEME: 

Summer time on the Ridge!!!  

Its been long enough- break out the watermelon salads, white wines and hot dogs!  Whatever Summer means to you, let's kick it off correctly!

2026 BOCCE FORMAT:​

 

🏆 League Mission

• Eagle Ridge is a special place where neighbors become friends and the community comes together. At its core, our bocce league is about being social, meeting new people, and having fun. This season we’re doubling down on that spirit by keeping the official league focused on community and sportsmanship.

• What that means:

  • The league will remain purely social and community-focused

  • The end-of-season tournament will no longer be part of official league play.  Instead, a separate optional tournament may be hosted later for those interested in competitive play 

  • Zero tolerance for unsportsmanlike conduct

​

📅 Season Format Updates

Based on last year’s feedback, we’re making a few updates to improve the experience:

• 55 minute games are back!

• Three league nights: Monday, Wednesday and Thursday

• Game times: ~5–8 PM time slots

  • Game times/ final schedules will dependent on how many teams are in each league

• Game Hosts will help set up courts and keep time (no more court officials)

• Court maintenance will be handled by a third party supported by the HOA

• End-of-season Bocce Awards & Raffle Party! 

  • Each league will vote on fun award categories like Best Spirit, Best Food, Top Teams and yes — the League Champions will still earn the coveted Title of Champion & Eagle Ridge Bocce Champion T-Shirt.

​​

Additional Updates: 

• Weekly Hosts (instead of Court Officials)
  Rather than formal court officials, each week will have a League Host helping keep things running smoothly. Teams and Capos will self-referee, keeping the league’s social spirit front and center.

​

• Professional Court Maintenance
  Great news — the bocce courts will now be professionally maintained each week, thanks to HOA funding. This ensures the courts stay in great condition all season long.

​

• New & Revamped Bocce Committee
  The league will be run by a refreshed Eagle Ridge Bocce Committee, a group of community volunteers helping coordinate scheduling, communication, and fun throughout the season: Denise Giffin, Ed Recotta, Jenny Mitchell, John Schlick, Pam Marshall and Michelle Mastrocola.
