The Half Crown PC is based in the village of Stockton deep in the heart of Warwickshire. We are very active in promoting and enjoying the game of pétanque. We play socially, seriously, internationally (through our exchanges with Pétanque clubs from France and Germany), but most importantly, we have fun. We were the English Champion Club in 2010. Our facilities are extremely good, with eight international-sized terrains and the ability to host competitions of up to 24 teams very comfortably.  We are attached to a thriving pub – The Crown Inn – which gives us all the facilities we need, including a top notch restaurant, bar snacks, fine wines and real ales, as well as club house facilities for our social events. On the social side we play every Saturday from 2pm and on Tuesday evenings from 7.30pm, and welcome newcomers to join in. We can lend you some boules, instruct you in rules of the game and ensure that you have an interesting experience, whether you are 8 or 80 years old.
