About Provida Pétanque Club

Our Story

Provida Pétanque Club was founded on January 1, 2025, by Neak Oknha Ing Bunhoaw, with the vision of creating a strong pétanque community in Cambodia.

Pétanque is a traditional sport that originated in France in the early 20th century and was later introduced to Cambodia during the French colonial period. Over time, the sport became popular in the country and is now played by people of all ages.

The game is played in teams on a small gravel court, usually about 4 meters wide and 12–15 meters long, where players compete using skill, precision, and strategy.

Provida Pétanque Club was established to promote this sport, bring players together, and support the growth of pétanque in Cambodia while connecting with the international pétanque community.
