3205 Beach Patrol is a group that meets for One Hour each month to clear rubbish from South Melbourne Beach. Totally voluntary, totally optional, totally local.
We meet every THIRD Saturday, same place, same time.
Beach Patrol is a chain of volunteer community groups each defined by suburb, post code and t-shirt colour. Starting in 2009, by mid-2015 there were 18 groups running, covering over 50 km of beach across the top of Melbourne's Port Phillip Bay with approx. 1500 volunteers signed up to help keep our beaches clean.
TBG 35+ Midfield @ Sat 9:00am
This smaller half-pitch match is strictly for **35 years and older** players only, as well as **not for beginners**. You must register to play.
Please arrive on time to lend a hand in setting up the goals. A Roll Call for registered players is conducted. If you arrive late, you will need to join one of the other remaining open-age matches and relinguish your spot for someone who is on the waiting list and has come on-time. Please have the courtesy to de-register if you are unable to attend at all. Please wear a black or white top, or bring both so teams can be easily divided evenly.
We recommend shin guards as the game is competitive and a contact sport. It is up to you to manage your own risk of injury, as this is social and free. However, we do NOT condone sliding tackles and over-aggressiveness.
Please place your possessions in a safe place while the game is running. Your possessions are your own responsibility.
Post-match, please help with packing up the goals, bibs and cones. 2-3 people per goal makes very light work and only takes 3 minutes.

Footscray Puppy Pub Crawl
Open to all dog lovers, dog owners, and of course your sociable pooches!
Join us for a Saturday arvo bar crawl through the vibrant, eclectic streets of Footscray — designed to be just as fun for the humans as it is for the pups.
We’ll stop by three pawsome venues, all within 1 km, each with its own unique vibe, tasty drinks, and treats for both two- and four-legged guests.
Ticketed event only - please book you tockets at https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/footscray-puppy-pub-crawl-tickets-1705773036069?aff=oddtdtcreator
🥂 Stop 1 – Littlefoot Bar
Right in the heart of Footscray, this community-favourite bar is loved for its warm vibes and killer cocktails.
We’ll be seated at Littlefoot Next Door, their pop-up space, where humans can enjoy:
✨ Special-priced Espresso Martinis
✨ Special-priced “Jesica Rabbit Fiz” mocktail
Meanwhile, the doggos won’t miss out — there’ll be snacks waiting just for them!
🚶♀️ 350m walk to our next venue
🍻 Stop 2 – Mr. West Bar & Bottle Shop
With 30 taps pouring wine, cocktails, craft beers and ciders, Mr. West is a Footscray institution that defies categories — except one: dog-friendly!
Here’s the best part: the pups get to sip on Hop Nation Doggie Beers 🍺 (don’t worry, made from bone broth). Packed with nutrients for coat, joint, and gut health — it’s basically a health tonic disguised as a treat!
If the weather turns, we’ll cozy up in the courtyard upstairs.
🚶♂️ 450m stroll to our final stop
🎉 Stop 3 – Moon Dog Wild West
This venue is a playground for adults (and pups who like attention)! With 100 taps across three floors, a mechanical bull, stage, pool hall, and rooftop vibes — it’s the perfect finale.
They’ve reserved the rooftop for us, complete with:
🍟 Bowls of hot chips
🥑 Chips & guac to share
Want to stick around? Grab dinner here and keep the good times rolling.
🐶 Why join?
Because Saturday afternoons are better spent socialising over cocktails and cuddles.
Your dogs get treats, playtime, and new furry friends, while you discover some of Footscray’s best bars with like-minded dog lovers.
📌 The Nitty Gritty
All dogs must stay on-lead while visiting venues.

Need a ride? Use UBER PETS (bring a blanket for your pup & let your driver know before pick-up).
Play 3-Sided Soccer at Albert Park - mixed - social - all levels - all fitness
3 Teams. 3 Goals. Hexagonal Pitch. A game of alliance and betrayal in equal measure.
We are looking for new players and returning players alike to come play a match. Players of any ability, fitness level or background are welcomed - the game is intended to be fun for a Sunday morning rather than super competitive.
If you've never played before, that's okay - the rules are as simple as this:
* There's no offside - roam where you will
* Defend your goal at all costs
* No hands (this is soccer-style football after all)
Come down for 9:00am, we make some balanced teams and warm up for the match starting at 9:15.
Three thirds are played of 25 minutes each so we're usually done by about 11:00am. All fitness and soccer skill levels more than welcome and encouraged!
A note regarding junior players:
We very much enjoy and encourage junior players to come along and play however please be aware of the following:
* As most attendees are adults, all players must be a minimum of 1.5m tall and 13 years of age. Soccer may have incidental contact when contesting a ball, and we would hate for someone small to be injured as a result of running into someone larger than them.
* Any players under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a playing parent or guardian.
How to find us -
We meet on the astroturf pitch near the Baselball and Hockey clubs in Albert Park. The main location we use is called "Dorothy Coleman Field". If we aren't there then there may be a couple of other locations, [as noted on this dynamic map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1JdDwV4AOV5e-xP5d56m16-eu29GlnZQ&usp=sharing) \- generally we will follow in number order\.

After each goal a spot kick is taken and the opposing team must stand behind the white line (you'll understand when you get there).

If we are unable to fill the spot then I will not be able to refund you. Thank you.
16 May: Figurine Painting and Friends-Social
**✨Are you tired of making ‘how are you’ friends? This event is for you!✨**
🎨What better way to build and deepen connections than through a fun activity like **Figurine painting**!
There are many social events but it isn’t easy to feel connected to someone in a large group setting. I am super extroverted yet found myself walking home after a great social feeling more lonely, because of all the superficial connections made. I started Hue&Crew to help people build their next close-friend circle based on age, personality and interest!
🎨**What to Expect**
This isn’t a big mixer event, every event has a limit of 6 people per table and a fishbowl full of conversation starters to help people get started! We move around Melbourne's many beautiful cafes weekly to keep things fresh! Expect:
* A fresh, comfy venue
* A hosted structure so you’re never left awkwardly quiet
* A fishbowl of conversation starters for the introverts
* A relaxed atmosphere where you can genuinely be yourself
* Hand-painted figurines you made yourself to bring home
Each group is curated to feel natural, matched by age, interest and personality
🎨**Notice before you sign up:**
As the events are really small and it might take some time to form a group with similar interests, we will inform you when there is a suitable group for you!
