In the game of Tò Vegna in Farra di Mel, a small village in the province of Belluno, it is the ‘Sior’, the referee who keeps an eye on the game. The activity consists of hitting a ball with one’s hands to direct it into the opponent’s court and the counting of the score is reminiscent of tennis. 15 to 0 becomes ‘quindese (fifteen) to the one hitting or ‘quindese to the one returning’ and a 15 to 15 draw is decreed with ‘quindese par om’; expressions in the local language
that speak of the area from which they derive.
