There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. Boccia contestant playing a ball (top left) - This image is on the top left of the page. It shows a player, seen from the side so only one of his arms and one of his legs can be found. He lacks strength in his arms and trunk. He is using a ramp to help him aim his red ball at the jack to the right. The jack cannot be found as it is beyond the image border. He is in a motorised wheelchair. The player's head is near the top left of the image. Down the page are his shoulders and his arm extending out to his hand on the right. Slightly up the page from his hand, you can find the top of the ramp with the red ball about to roll down the ramp to the right. Down the page from his shoulders is his body sitting on the wheelchair with his leg and foot to the right. The front wheel of the chair is down and left from his foot and the rear is to the left again. Two sets of Boccia balls (bottom left) - This image shows a top view of a box with fifteen square compartments. There are six red balls in the compartments on the left of the box and six blue on the right. The jack ball is in the top centre of the box with two empty compartments down the page. Jack with two red and two blue balls (bottom centre) - This image shows five Boccia balls: two red on the left of the image and two blue on the right. The jack is in the centre of the image. There is a dashed line from it to the red ball to the left and down, showing that this is the nearest ball to the jack. Diagram of a Boccia court (right) - At the bottom of this image are six rectangular player boxes in a horizontal row. Each contestant has a box from which all his or her balls are thrown. A player may not leave the box until all the players have thrown all of their six balls. Up the page from these are two diagonal lines that meet in the centre. A thrown ball must pass beyond these to be valid. Further up the page is a cross. If the jack is knocked out of the court during play or if there is a tiebreak, it is placed here. The horizontal line across the top of the image marks the end of the court.
