Supporting the grassroots development of the sport and redefining pétanque in a competitive and rewarding region.

Shaping the pétanque landscape in the North West of England

Whilst neighbouring pétanque regions nearby such as Yorkshire Pétanque and East-Midlands have developed a strong pétanque scene, for a long time, the North West remained neglected and underserved.

However, with the rise of PNW this status-quo is undergoing change. Starting from the ground-up, we are building the foundations of something remarkable and we would love you to be a part of that journey.

We need more clubs & pétanque players here in the North West

PNW collaborates with players, clubs, and larger organisations to promote pétanque as a sustainable and viable sport in our region. This includes engaging in discussions and meetings with a variety of stakeholders.

In addition, we organise playing opportunities for all skill levels, giving you the chance to improve your game and build lasting friendships within a welcoming pétanque community.

Even at a senior age, in petanque I can still compete with a younger opponent.
