What we’re about
Thanks for stopping by and checking out PUG (Pick Up Games) Sports Zone.
While we play various sports, there is one common theme in every game we host; there are no set teams from week to week so a member who you were playing against one week could be your teammate the next.
This helps foster an environment where we welcome anyone 18 or older who wants to play, whether experienced or just starting out, an environment where effort is valued over talent; all that we ask is that you give 100%.
We're looking for people who like to compete but do not go overboard about it. Anyone who harps on other players inadequacies or has a negative attitude if the game doesn't go their way or is just a big jerk should pass us by because we will ask them to leave.
Due to the cost of renting facilities and buying, maintaining equipment and insurance, we do charge for the events we post; $12.50 for Outdoor Soccer, and $10.50 for Volleyball. The schools we play at do not allow cash to exchange hands at the gyms or fields we rent so we have a online payment policy through Venmo.

We have 2 full courts, at a very nice gym. We will have five teams of seven (one player rotating in and one rotating out at serve) with one team rotating out after each game to rest while the other four teams play. There is no winners stay, every team will play roughly the same amount of games.
Please arrive by 2:00 pm to start warming up and we will break into teams by 2:05 pm and play until 3:55 pm.
There are no set teams; the game organizers will divide players into teams with the goal of having teams of roughly equal ability.
We're looking for people who like to compete but do not go overboard about it. If you're the type of player who harps on other players inadequacies or has a negative attitude if the game doesn't go your way or you just generally think you're God's gift to Volleyball, you may want to join a league and pass us by.
Also, even though kicking is within the rules of volleyball, we've banned it for our games since a few players have been hit very hard in the head from ricochets.
We want positive people who enjoy playing with other like-minded individuals.
If you haven't had much experienced playing volleyball or you haven't played in a very long time, you are more than welcome to join us. If your experience is limited, please let the game organizers know so that we can make sure you're aware of the basics. HOWEVER, if you have NO experience playing, we would advise you to sign-up for a beginner's volleyball class that you can find on Meet-up or your local Junior College. We're a volleyball pick-up game NOT a class.
Also, during the course of play, if you're not that experienced, the more experienced players may give you advice (in a positive way), so please don't take any comments made as a negative; we just want everyone to have fun and improve their game.
