The CPP seeks to promote, develop, and monitor boules sports in the Americas in a spirit of peace, understanding, and fair play, without discrimination on the basis of politics, sex, religion, origin, or any other reason. We seek to ensure that sporting values prevail over commercial interests.
We believe that while promoting the game, we can equally promote the bonds of friendship and cooperation between the member federations.
