Bocce Classic

Every summer John Pirelli Lodge OSIA #1633 & Societa Di Mutuo Soccorso Italiana of Dayton host Ohio's premiere bocce tournament. This event is held annually to promote our Italian heritage and raise money for local charities.

A minimum of 64 four-person teams will compete in a double elimination tournament. Over $7500 in prize money will be awarded to 20 teams. For teams that lose the first two games they play, there is a second single elimination consolation tournament played on Sunday. This assures all teams of at least 3 games.

The tournament is open to men, women and adult-supervised children above the age of 12.
