Hi, I’m Stephen Daykin, a passionate Petanque player with nearly 30 years of experience under my belt! My love for the game began at the tender age of 11, and since then, I’ve claimed multiple regional titles and proudly represented both my region and England in numerous competitions.

Last year, I embarked on an incredible journey to compete in France, where I narrowly missed out on qualifying for the championship of France losing 12-13 in the department doubles semi-final.

Join me as I share my most treasured experiences, unforgettable memories, and captivating stories from my adventures in the world of Petanque. From the places I’ve stayed, the people I’ve met to the friends I’ve made and the cultures I’ve encountered, I’m excited to bring you along for the ride.

As a qualified Petanque coach and experienced player, I’ll also share valuable tips and insights to help you elevate your own game.
