The purpose of the Grundfos Petanque Club is to promote the interest for the game. This is done by training and participation in tournaments both at home and abroad and in club championship matches and lessons in technique and strategy.

As a member of Grundfos Hobby & Sports Association you can be a member of the Grundfos Petanque Club. The price is an annual fee, see above, training weekly and participation in tournaments in DGI, club championship and tournaments at other Grundfos companies. Some activities require an additional payment.

There is training from April to October every Monday night and after October as long as the weather permits Saturday morning. In wintertime we play in the Grundfos hall with balls suitable for indoor use.

Petanque is a good sport, everyone can participate on a hobby level and on tournament level. The play does not require great physics, tactics and strategy are more important. Besides that, Grundfos Petanque Club cares for the social life with nice evenings and tours.

All you need is a set of balls and a good spirit to join the petanque game. Expensive balls are not a guarantee for success. Try to attend a training session to find out if Petanque is something for you.
