Pétanque Club Zurich organizes the traditional Grand Prix International de Zurich, which takes place on August 17th through 19th.
For all those that still want more, the Petanque Club Zurich organizes both on Saturday and Sunday so called Secteurs, or express-tournaments. These start as soon as 8 or 16 teams have signed up (fixed teams, Doublettes on both days) and go by the simple knock-out system.
It will be the 38th edition of this tournament, which, over the years, acquired an outstanding reputation in the international Pétanque community.
The GP Zurich is listed in the official calendar of the FFPJP, the International Federation of Pétanque and Jeu Provençale. A victory in Zurich is of high value, even for players with a lot of expertise in winning tournaments.
The GP Zurich is an exceptional niche-event, at the same time both a local and an international happening, attracting those who play only for fun as well as professionals. The urban ambience on the Josefwiese sets the scenery for an event that wants to be more than just a Pétanque competition. The GP Zurich is also perceived by many as a cultural and social happening.
