Can I please request that Petanca, Pétanque court of actual size on a lawn be able to have its own category in “your unique facilities”, there are choices for ping pong table, pool table etc but Petanca is very popular in my area. Thanks.

I will suggest this to the team! I live in the UK and the game is not so popular here. Initially I thought that perhaps it wasn’t a game that is popular all around the world - however I have now googled this for more information and I stand corrected!

> “Pétanque is played widely around the world — the governing body Fédération Internationale de Pétanque et Jeu Provençal (FIPJP) lists **over 100 member federations** across five continents. Estimates suggest that pétanque is played in **160+ countries** globally.”

Wow!
