When the coche is moved out-of-play and both teams still have boules left to play, it is said to be a “dead end”. Neither team scores any points from the end and the end is re-started with the same team keeping control of the coche.
If only one team has boules left they win the end and score points equal to the number of their unplayed boules.
“Shooting the coche’ is a legitimate tactic, with a player deliberately knocking the coche out of play to either force the end to be replayed or to directly score points if the other team has no boules left.
