Mouna Beji, between passion for the game and determination

On pétanque courts, Mouna Beji stands out with a style defined by precision, commitment and consistency. A Team Obut player who has built her game over time, match after match, driven by unwavering standards.

Born in Tunis, Mouna Beji discovered the sport at the age of 9, introduced to it by her father. Just a few steps from her home, the Tunisian Pétanque Federation’s boulodrome quickly became her playground. She spent hours there training, repeating her movements and refining her accuracy.

Very early on, the game became a natural part of her daily life.

A passion for pétanque from the very first throws

Mouna Beji took her first steps at La Boule d'Or club in Tunis, the club closest to her heart, where she played for 15 years. It was there that she built the foundations of her pétanque practice and developed the discipline that still guides her every day.

She then continued her journey with the Gazelec Sport club in Tunis, where she kept refining her game and strengthening her place within Tunisian pétanque.

Reaching this level requires total commitment. Mouna Beji devoted much of her holidays to training, tirelessly repeating the same movements to gain greater precision and consistency.

A connection built game after game

During a regional triples championship, Mouna Beji and Ludivine d’Isidoro found themselves playing together at the Vaulx-en-Velin boulodrome.

An exchange that still makes them smile: Ludivine d’Isidoro, although originally from Lyon, did not know there was a boulodrome in Vaulx-en-Velin… while Mouna Beji, who came from Tunisia, already knew about it.

Since then, the story often comes up between them, like a knowing wink that accompanies their games.
