**[[THINGS TO BRING]]**
We ask that you bring:
* Water bottle
* Appropriate footwear for indoor court shoes - netball shoes, volleyball shoes, or basketball shoes would be suitable.
* Wear contacts or sports glasses if possible.

Volleyball Training and Games - Intermediate - B Level (PVGC)
Welcome to Melbourne Volleyball Academy! 🤗
**[[WHAT]]**
This session will be broken into 2 halves, 1st half is training and the 2nd half is games. Please arrive on time as we will start exactly at 6:30 PM.
Our intention is to have this training be the 'next step' after our beginner-level training at North Melbourne Community Centre.
We will be focusing on learning what specific roles on the court entail, improving 'volleyball IQ', breaking bad habits, and building better techniques.
**[[WHERE]]**
The session will be held as Pascoe Vale Girls College.
Please enter via Cornwall Road through the back gates as other entrances onto the campus will be closed
**[[WHO]]**
The training is intended for social volleyball players at the intermediate level or 'B' level (for more details on volleyball levels, please visit our site here: https://melbournevolleyballacademy.com.au/skill-levels-explained).
Players are expected to:
* have strong fundamentals
* pass freeballs and serve receive consistently
* understand 4-2 system (pass middle rotation)
* have some knowledge of 5-1 (1 setter all around) or 6-2 (back row setter only) systems
* understand 'base defense'
* help others and have good sportsmanship
If you are a high intermediate (BB) or advanced player (A) you are more than welcome to join but you may find our open play sessions for BB/A level players more suitable.
For players that are at the beginner level, we suggest attending our training on Fridays at North Melbourne Community Centre 6-9PM as beginners may find the drills and level of play too difficult.
Players will be asked to attend a different session if their play is deemed unsafe or if they are not of the appropriate skill level.

May 23 | Kismetrix Social — A Hosted Singles Evening at Secret Garden
🎉 **KISMETRIX \| TRUE CONNECTION**
[Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/may-23-kismetrix-social-a-hosted-singles-evening-at-secret-garden-tickets-1988384078304?aff=oddtdtcreator)
**Kismetrix Social — Drinks, Conversation & Connection Under the Sunflowers**
Hosted by KISMETRIX \| True Connection
📍 Secret Garden Bar: 7/60 Fitzroy St, St Kilda VIC 3182
📅 Saturday 23 May 2026
🕖 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM *(venue open late)*
## A SATURDAY NIGHT TO ACTUALLY CONNECT
There's a place in St Kilda where sunflowers hang from the ceiling, the garden feels like a secret you've stumbled into, and the night just slows down a little.
That's where we're hosting Kismetrix Social — our most relaxed evening, designed for singles who want real conversation, good company, and a Saturday night that actually feels like one.
Think less "dating event"… more a Saturday night you'd actually choose to go out for.
## 💫 ABOUT THE EVENT
Tired of dating apps that go nowhere? Over environments that feel forced or awkward? So were we.
KISMETRIX \| True Connection was created for people who want something more human — real conversation\, real presence\, genuine connection\.
You'll walk into a room full of people who:
🌻 Are open to meeting others
🌻 Enjoy good conversation and social energy
🌻 Prefer real-life interaction over apps
🌻 Are simply here for a good, intentional night out
Come for a drink. Stay for the vibe. See where the night goes.
## 🌻 THE VIBE
Picture it: warm lighting, hanging sunflowers above your head, the garden buzzing softly around you, and the kind of crowd where it's actually easy to start a conversation.
Expect:
🌻 A welcome drink in your hand within a minute of arriving
🌻 A warm, hosted welcome so nobody walks in feeling lost
🌻 Hosted introductions early in the evening to help conversations get started
🌻 Free-flowing mingling with light support from our hosts throughout the night
🌻 Conversation prompts on each table, if the room needs them
🌻 A relaxed, social crowd of intentional singles
No rotations. No forced formats. No hookup-bar energy. Just a thoughtfully designed night under the sunflowers, with people who actually want to meet someone.
## 👥 AGE GUIDE: 28–45
Kismetrix Social is open to all singles who care about meaningful connection. We provide an age guide so you know what to expect — most of our guests will fall within this range.
The focus of our events is intentional people, not strict age groups. If you're slightly outside this range and the format feels right for you, you're welcome to book.
## 🎯 WHO THIS NIGHT IS FOR
This event is for singles who:
🌻 Prefer a relaxed, social way to meet people
🌻 Enjoy conversation without forced formats
🌻 Want something more grounded than the apps
🌻 Appreciate good venues, good drinks, good company
🌻 Are open, friendly, and easy-going
Come solo or with a friend — most people come solo. You'll be in good company.
## 🍽️ FOOD & DRINKS
Your ticket includes a welcome drink on arrival.
Secret Garden has a great food and drinks menu throughout the night, available directly from the venue. Perfect if you'd like to make a full evening of it — and many of our guests do.
## 🎟 TICKETS
🌻 Early-Bird — $39
🌻 Bring-a-Friend Early-Bird — $35 each (paired bookings only)
🌻 General — $45
🌻 Last Minute— $55
Welcome drink included at every tier. Tickets are limited to maintain a comfortable, social atmosphere — early booking is recommended.
## 💡 WHY PEOPLE LOVE KISMETRIX EVENTS
🌻 No swiping. No apps. Just real people
🌻 No awkward formats or forced interactions
🌻 Thoughtful structure without rigidity
🌻 A genuinely enjoyable night — even if you come solo
🌻 Hosted by people who actually care about how the night feels
Many guests come "just for a drink"… and end up staying all night.
## ✨ WHERE KISMETRIX SOCIAL FITS
Kismetrix Social is our most accessible event — a relaxed, hosted evening for singles who want real connection without the structure of our Elevated Evenings or the formality of our Dinners.
It's the easiest way to experience how we do things, and many guests go on to join our other events from here.
## 🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES
🌻 This is a hosted social experience — not speed dating
🌻 A welcome drink is included; additional drinks and food are available at the venue
🌻 Participation in introductions is always optional
🌻 Respect, boundaries, and good energy are essential
🌻 Tickets are non-refundable but transferable

**Abstract**
Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod.
