The UK Championships is finally back

It’s been a long time coming for British boccia players but the UK Championships is finally back. The event has been put on hold since it was staged in 2019 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Hosted by Disability Sport Wales at the LC Swansea, day one has seen solid performances from established world class athletes as well as up and coming players from right across the UK.
