The SaddleBrooke Ranch (SBR) Bocce Club Fall League playoff matches were played Dec. 2 through Dec. 5, 2024. Only the top 12 teams out of a field of 39 teams qualified for the playoffs. The Honor Rollers team, captain John Murphy, edged out the Big LeBocce team, captain Mark Warren, for the championship after the match was delayed due to an unexpected rain squall. The Winter League started Jan. 13. If you’re interested in playing bocce, an “Introduction to Bocce” session is open and free to any SBR resident on the first Tuesday of each month.
