OUTDOOR RECREATION
There are three structured outdoor recreation
facilities in Hot Springs Village: Bocce Ball, Lawn Bowling and Pickle ball. All activities operate as club programs.
Bocce Ball
The bocce courts are located across from the
Coronado Community Center. Boccee is fun and easy to learn. All equipment is
provided by the club. It is a game of skill and concentration rather than
physical stamina. The game is played on a flat surface. The object of the
game is to get game balls as close as possible to the target ball. For more
information and times of play visit their website at
www.hsvbocceclub.com.
Lawn Bowling
The Village Green Bowls Club is active all year.
Lawn bowling is a game with moderate exercise. The game is played on a green
with a target ball and is similar to regular bowling. However, the bowls
weigh only two to three pounds and are less strenuous on the legs and back.
The object of the game is to get bowls near the target ball. The bowls are
biased so they are rolled left to right or right to left making lawn bowling
a challenge. For further information and times play, please visit their
website at

Pickle ball
Pickle ball is a hybrid game
that mixes elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. The games is
played on a 20' by 44' court. Pickle ball has three unique attributes not
found in any other racquet sport; the serve position, the double bounce and
the no-volley zone.
Pickle ball may be played as
recreation or agressively. It is a game of finesse and strategy rather than
raw power. To learn more about pickle ball visit their website at
