In 1994 Nick Twilley started the Grande Franco Britanique Concours de Pétanque which has been held in Beauville on the 14th of July every year since. When Nick died the Office de Tourisme took over the event. In 2017 the OT wanted to hand over and Bon Coeur managed the event.
The popular T shirts were reintroduced and 64 players took part. The results were:-
Winners Robert and Gerard
Runners-up Richard and Steve
Winners of the consolants Maxim and Alan
Runners-up of the consolants Sophia and Jan
