The sixth sport in France by number of people who play, pétanque is popular the world over. Although the "triplette" game (teams of three players) is the formula for all the big championsips, the "doublette" game (two players) is preferred for amateur tournaments.
In this formula, the team is comprised of a marker (a precision player who looks for the optimal position near the target) and a shooter (the player charged with "clearing" the balls thrown by the other side's marksman).
