Mario Pagnoni, author of the best selling Joy of Bocce, is a retired public school teacher and high school coach of 32 years. He is a frequent public speaker and often attends bocce ribbon cutting ceremonies and other bocce related tournaments and events. He has also helped the Martignetti Family Charity Bocce Tournament raise over $100,000 for organizations such as the Jimmy Fund and the Joey Fund. A frequent radio and television guest, he tirelessly promotes the game via his appearances and writing. He'll help make your event successful.
We are very popular on the west coast and in mid-America, we are the first in the East to offer such programs. When corporate managers in California saw the social dynamics and camaraderie associated with bocce company parties, they were "hooked." We think you will be too.

Here’s a fund-raiser that we put together on short notice that turned out extremely well. Three-year-old Logan qualified for an expensive stem-cell procedure in Dusseldorf, Germany which has had great results treating cerebral palsy.
So, my family and friends as well as local businesses mobilized for a good cause. We raised $25,000 dollars in an afternoon. We set up the venue the night before. Ten courts were laid down to accommodate a twenty team tournament. All played at the same time – no down time.
Four courts are our usual 12 by 80 footers made of vinyl fence posts and the other six are 12′ by 60′ templates from Backyard Bocce.
The venue was an indoor soccer field at the PhanZone in Hampstead, NH.
We made sure the sponsors get some ink and encourage people to patronize their establishments.
We need to support the businesses and individuals who support us. And we celebrated with Fresh fruit, bagels and creme cheese
and pastry from Mann Orchards. Special thanks to Greg Debrocke and Carmela Pagnoni for their photos.
All smiles (and some tears) after accomplishing this spectacular gift for our friend Logan.
Our tournament winners proudly show off their style.
We regularly teach new kids how to play bocce through a FREE program run by the Nevins Library.
We normally lay down four courts for this type of event. Then we have a few referees helping us out. Here, we have Soupy pointing out which team needs to make the next shot.
We offer a FREE bocce book and sometimes medals or a gift to the winner of this tournament during the afternoon activities.
