Wikipedia, July 31, 2014 (Boccia is a precision ball sport, similar to bocce, and related to bowls and pétanque; it was originally designed to be played by people with cerebral palsy but now includes athletes with other severe disabilities affecting motor skills; in 1984 it became a Paralympic sport, and is one of three Paralympic sports that have no counterpart in the Olympic program)
