Yes we do provide some coaching for beginners at most of our beginner-level sports sessions. We also provide coaching at our intermediate level volleyball and basketball sessions.

9. What's the address of your sports centre?

We play at various sports centres around the Wimbledon area. We don't list them here to discourage people from just turning up. When you book a place we will send you a map & directions.

10. How much does it cost to play?

Please see our membership page. Each of our sports sessions has its own separate membership. If you want to play at 2 or more of our sports sessions then you can join them separately. Contact us to find out more.

11. Can I just turn up?

No. We limit the number of players at each game, so non-members MUST book a place beforehand. Members have their places guaranteed every week and can just turn up.

12. Can I contact you on the day to see if there is a place available?

This only applies to new players who want to try out once as a non-member. Yes, you're welcome to contact us at the last minute to see if there is a place available for you to play. Please note that most sports are usually full up a few days in advance, but you're welcome to try.

13. Do I have to play every week?

No you don't have to play every week. Once you join a sport session you can play at that session as often as you like. Most of our players make it to 3 or 4 games each month.

This only applies to non-members. To cancel your booking just let us know, giving as much notice as possible so that we can let someone else play.

We usually receive your message within a few minutes and, as some surprised visitors have found, that we sometimes e-mail or phone you back before you have even left our Web site. We definitely respond to all messages within a couple of days. We don't list our contact details here because of the volume of enquiries we receive and to reduce junk; we offer the Contact Us form to process your enquiry quickly and efficiently. We always send our contact details to you when we reply. If you want to make a last-minute booking then please remember to include your mobile phone number so that we can contact you quickly if necessary. Please note that our phone does not transmit our number (CLI) so if we phone you it will show up as "Number Withheld" on your mobile phone.
