context_page_description: Rolle Bolle also known as Belgian Bowling, or Krulbollen in Belgium, is a bowling sport related to boules, which originates from the Flanders region of Belgium. The sport was introduced to North America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and is played in some rural areas of the Midwest and Prairie regions of the United States and Canada.
  One of the defining characteristics of Rolle Bolle is the wheel-like shape of the ball, or bolle. Bolles are manufactured in a way so that they do not roll straight but in a curved, elliptical path.
context_section_description: A round is complete when both teams have played all of their bolles. If the round finishes then the team with the closest bolle wins the round and scores one point for each of its bolles that is closer to the jack than other team's closest bolle. The first team to a predetermined number of points is the winner of the game.
caption: The red team has the bolle closest to the stake, but the second-closest bolle belongs to the blue team.  Red scores one point. Blue scores nothing.
