On all 3 Courts: 2hour recreational sessions of either 12noon to 2pm, or 2pm to 4pm. We share club news from 1.55 - 2.05pm. There are 5 levels of play and this is the best day for new members to join the club for the first time. All members are asked to arrive at least 15 minutes before their session.
On Sundays after practice, we will have drinks/food or play Table Football, at Bar Kick, (labelled A on Map below) 127 Shoreditch High Street, London E1 6JE or socialise at the nearby SpreadEagle Cafe. This can also be followed by dinner at one of the dozens of great restaurants close by, and then more drink ....
OUTDOORS: May - August
These sessions are free. We meet from 1.00 in Hyde Park and play till late!.
From Speaker’s Corner, look to your right (towards the west) and you will see some volleyball courts and a rainbow flag in the distance - that’s us!
We usually play next to point C on the map below, which is close to a place called Stone Tree (crossing of many roads), marked B. Point A, marks Marble Arch tube station, which is a convenient local tube station. Point D, marks the Public Toilets building, and if you have passed this and are heading towards the Serpentine Lake, then you have missed us!
We usually set up 3 courts, so that we can cater to either the Advanced, Intermediate or Beginner skill Levels. These are fun social play sessions and you are kindly reminded for safety reasons to play on the court for your skill level.
