Membership Survey
Survey
Each year, with the help of our member Federations, the CEP conducts a survey to monitor the number of pétanque players in Europe.
Since 2016 we have included the number of clubs, as these are the grassroots of our sport and vital to the recruitment and retention of players. Here are the results of our latest survey for 2025:
Federations 40
Clubs 8743
Individual Members 415597
