- THE HANGOUT CLUB -

San Jose, CA

Have you ever been bored and wanted to hang out and do something fun with your good friends but they were all either too busy being married with kids, unavailable for whatever reason, or just flat out broke?

Events may include everything from going to the movies, live music and dancing, beach trips, casual dining, game nights, happy hours, sporting events and so on. Being that this club has a new organizer, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Southbay Friends: Boardgames & More

San Jose, CA

This group has many types of activities: Boardgames, Karaoke, Hikes, Dance, Theatre Outings, Sport Events, Metaphysical (Meditation, Tantric Learning, Reiki, Massage, etc.), Poker, Sharing Cooking & Baking, Movie Night, Improv Night, and Anything else you suggest.

Really! Suggest something!

And when it comes to Board Games...I am often asked "What kind of Games do you play?"
A pretty accurate answer to "What kind of board games do we play" is:
"Euro-Strategy games, as found on BoardGamesGeek.com."

That is not necessarily the most helpful answer, tho. The actual range of games vary from super-simple (learn in 5 minutes, play in 10 minutes) to very involved (learn in 45 minutes, play in 4 hours, takes a dozen games before you really "get it")...So, chances are if you think to yourself "I like playing board games"...you'll probably find someone here who likes what you like :-)

***Check our Calendar!***

There's so many events per month, it's the only way to know what's coming up! We're all busy professionals, normal people, who want to make the most of our time away from work. We want to do more with our evenings than just sip a drink and check out the cuties in a bar. We want to take a break from trying to hook-up and just have fun together. Since we're not focused on trying to hook-up, single people and coupled people and even N-tupled people can freely join in and we'll all enjoy greater fun.

Many Events are in private home venues, for a very relaxed and comfortable interaction. These events include food, drink, and always interesting people.

If you have an interesting event you'd like to run or host, please contact me (Paul++) and we'll find a way for you to run an event.

Bay Pickleball

San Jose, CA

This is a group for anyone interested in playing Pickleball. Pickleball is a racquet sport which combines elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis. The sport is played on a court with the same dimensions as a doubles badminton court. The net is similar to a tennis net, but is two inches lower in the center. The game is played with a hard paddle and a polymer whiffle ball. Although Pickleball appears to be very similar to tennis, there are key differences that make Pickleball more accessible to a wider range of players, from children to seniors. Chief among these differences is the speed of the Pickleball ball which typically moves slower than a tennis ball. Equally important, however, is the size of the court, which is just under one-third of the total area of a tennis court. This smaller area combined with the slower moving ball makes Pickleball much easier to play than tennis. It is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced and professional players. Originally invented as a backyard pastime, Pickleball is now an organized sport represented by national and international governing bodies. Pickleball is addictive and as a result, the sport is spreading rapidly across the country and around the world. We now have 75 countries which have national Pickleball organizations. Pickleball is North America's fastest growing sport. Join us and find out why. There are many locations where you can now play Pickleball. You can find a location near you by clicking on the following link from usapickleball.org. [https://www.places2play.org/map](https://www.places2play.org/map) Use the map to quickly find the places to play Pickleball near you. If you want a location where you play to be listed on Bay Pickleball, you or someone else who is a regular there will need to volunteer to act as host at each of the meetups at that location. The meetup organization requires a host at each meetup. Once I have you confirmed as a host, I will list that meetup on the Bay Pickleball calendar. Of course, I will continue to list the beginner and intermediate clinics that I host. **See disclaimer below!** ![](http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/2/0/3/2/event_163448242.jpeg) \*\*\*Please keep in mind that the Bay Pickleball Meetup group is just friends getting together to have fun. Your participation in the group's events and activities are voluntary and you are responsible for your own safety. By RSVP-ing yes for our Meetup events, you are accepting the risks, dangers, and hazards of any activity and you are releasing and discharging the Bay Pickleball Meetup organizer and assistants against any liability that arises from your participation in our group or its activities.\*\*\*

Sporty Girls

San Jose, CA

**What is Sporty Girls\*?** Sporty Girls started as a group of friends getting together to play informal, pick-up-type outdoor sports and games. We encourage women\* of any age or skill level -- including beginners or "never played" -- to come try a new (or old) sport and "just play," without an emphasis on being "good" or winning. Everybody is involved; nobody sits on the sidelines unless they want to. Most important -- when we play team sports, we don't do schoolyard picks, so nobody is ever "last." **What do we play?** Frisbee/Ultimate, badminton, kickball, dodgeball, flag football, street hockey, bocce, pickleball, and more. We're always open to suggestions for new things to play. **When do we play?** We try to schedule at least one event per month (except for December). We try to alternate Saturdays and Sundays, mornings and afternoons. **Where do we play, and how much does it cost?** The location depends on what we're playing. We play at parks and schools throughout the South Bay -- usually public venues so that it's free. If a fee is ever required, we'll tell you. Note: Since the Organizers pay to maintain this site and occasionally have to purchase equipment and replenish supplies, we do accept donations at our events to offset these costs. Or you can donate on the Home page. Many thanks! **\*Who can play?** We are an inclusive, LGBTQ-friendly group. If you identify as a woman or a nonbinary or trans person, you are welcome! Why "no guys allowed"? (By "guys" we mean cisgender men.) Our events provide (among other things) a confidence-building environment for people, especially women, to learn and play sports and games that they might not have felt comfortable trying in school or were actually excluded from because they were female. Our atmosphere differs from a co-ed one: we promote inclusion, equality, and acceptance of each person's level of experience; whereas when cisgender men are present, those age-old gender roles can sneak in and change the dynamic -- introducing, e.g., an increased level of competition, more intense physicality, or simply that subtle (subconscious?) expectation about abilities between the traditional sexes. Even if your cisgender male partner wouldn't do this, if we let one play, we'd have to let them all play. Thank you for understanding! **Can I bring my kids?** Yes, feel free to bring your children -- girls of any age, boys age 12 and under, and nonbinary and trans teens. If what we are playing is kid-friendly and you want them to try the game, they can join in. But we probably won't let little ones play if we think they'll get run over in fast-paced games like ultimate frisbee or big ball soccer. **What kind of shape should I be in, or what if I have an old injury that slows me down?** We DO NOT discriminate, period. You can play with us no matter your age or physical condition. Although some of the sports and games we play do require physical exertion (running), you should always only play to your comfort level. We will not judge you for taking a breather as often as you need to. (In fact, please do!) If you have a bad knee or ankle, bring your brace or other support, especially if we are playing on natural grass, which can have hidden divots, clumps, sprinklers, and gopher holes. If you have a disability, we'll try to modify how we play so you can get in the game. We will huddle up before each game to stretch, warm up, and talk about ways to play safely and minimize the risk of getting hurt. We also try to take three to four water breaks per event (depending) to keep everyone hydrated. Ultimately, however, *all Sporty Girls events are "play at your own risk."* **What should I bring and wear?** Always bring water and maybe a snack. We provide most of the equipment, but we'll let you know if you should bring something (e.g., your own tennis racket, if you have one). Also, if you have extras of any equipment, please bring them to lend out. (Put your name on your stuff with a Sharpie.) Wear comfortable clothing for the expected weather and type of event (shorts or sweats, t-shirt or sweatshirt). Jeans are not great for running but are OK for, say, horseshoes. Wear any type of sneakers for most events; if you want more traction, you can wear sneakers with "turf"-type soles (but please, no cleats). **Follow Us** On Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/SportyGirlsSJ/](https://www.facebook.com/SportyGirlsSJ/) On Twitter: @SportyGirlsSJ **Questions or Suggestions?** * • If you have trouble finding us on the day of an event, call or text 408-313-6930. • To suggest a sport, game, or location, or if you have a question, email sportygirlssj@gmail.com.
