Calendar Guidelines
The National Calendar is primarily for publicising PE-organised national events, and international events organised by CEP or FIPJP.
At our discretion we may also list selected major petanque competitions organised by others, if they meet the following criteria.
- The competition is run by a PE-affiliated Region, Club or League;
- The competition is run in accordance with FIPJP rules of petanque;
- The competition has the capacity to accommodate at least 32 teams;
- The competition is open to all PE members and is not restricted by region or club membership.
Many smaller club and regional events are held around the country and PE encourages and supports these, but it is not appropriate to list them on PE’s National Calendar.
If you would like your major open competition considered for inclusion, please email details to chair.events@petanque-england.uk
