Do I need to know anyone?

What if I'm not very good at sport?

That's fine. Sessions are designed for all abilities and are casual rather than competitive.

Do I need to join a team?

No. Book the individual sessions that suit you.

Is this a sports league?

No. Sessions are drop-in and commitment-free.

Is this for people in their 20s and 30s?

Yes. Social Sport is designed primarily for people in their twenties and thirties.

What happens after I book?

You'll receive confirmation details and a link to the relevant WhatsApp group.

Is this a dating event?

Social Sport players smiling together during a casual session

A new city feels better once you know a few faces.

Cambridge is where Social Sport started. We make it easier to meet people naturally: everyone has something to do together, conversation has a starting point and there is no team, league or season to join.

Sport is just the excuse. The people are the point.

Meet people naturally

You don't have to walk into a room and start introducing yourself. Playing sport gives everyone something to do together from the start.

Come on your own

Most people come on their own the first time. You don't need an existing team or group of friends.

Keep it casual

No leagues, seasons or long-term commitments. Book whenever you want.

Actually build a social life

Join the WhatsApp group after booking, come back regularly and get to know the people you play with.

Turn up on your own. It gets easier from there.
