The best way to find a petanque club is to use the petanque club search page.
The FPUSA has a list of FPUSA-affiliated clubs but of course non-FPUSA-affiliated clubs are not on the list.
There are other lists of pétanque clubs on various web sites, but most are not maintained, so they are out-of-date and contain many dead entries. Petanque America no longer maintains its map of petanque clubs. The Playaboule list was never seriously maintained and is totally useless.

Just an fyi. The dutch petanque association created an app “boules-baas” (only available in the Netherlands though) which layers petanque courts and clubs onto a map (looks like a lite version of Google maps) as well as recording and sharing results of games. In the dev notes, it’s purportedly to attract a younger generation of player and make it easier for new players to find where to go. Seems like an interesting option that could be ported somewhere else some day.

Thanks! Interesting! There are maps of UK and France clubs (see our club search page), but they are web pages, not cell phone apps.
