70 Years at the Heart of the Game
Pétanque is much more than a game—it’s a living heritage passed down from generation to generation. At OBUT, for 70 years, we have cultivated this art of living where togetherness, joy, and sportsmanship meet. Every match becomes a precious moment, a bridge between generations, a tradition shared over time.
