**WHAT:** No Beginners. Players of various skill levels will play on a court together, primarily in a 6v6 format and some Competitive level 4s, 3s, 2s but may vary depending on the number of players in attendance or availability of the sand courts. That said, "beginner players" (those with NO skills or who demonstrate an inability to play at even a basic level (i.e. don't or can't pass a ball) should likely consider other options, as such players greatly disrupt play or get injured. Note: If you are a player with a higher skill level (B/BB, etc.) and are looking for more consistent, more competitive games, please visit [Maryland Juniors Sports Center](http://www.mdjrssportscenter.com/index.php/volleyball.html) on leagues, tournaments, etc. in the area. **DO NOT EXPECT TO COME TO THE MEETUP AND PLAY AT ANY SPECIFIC LEVEL** (though having fun is a good expectation!) *

I like meeting other singles over 45 that have mostly the same interesting social events, sporting events, like to travel and sightseeing places etc.

This is a group for young professionals, graduate students, or recent grads in the area looking for more friends. So if you're interested in happy hours, live music,  movies, and the occassioan bar hopping on Adams Morgans and U street OR day trips to Baltimore  I welcome you to join.

All events will be metro accessible!

Couples welcome as long as one half is the 29 and under demographic!

Expanding to outdoor events, hiking, yoga, water sports and more!
