Sh*t At Soccer - Women & Nonbinary Folks

Sh*t at Soccer is a weekly kickabout and social group for queer women and nonbinary folks (and our allies) with a goal to get out more, try new hobbies, and meet people. 

Our cornerstone event is the weekly (Sh*t at) Soccer Kickabout/Pickup Game, and we also attend Women’s Sports (Reign, Storm, etc) Games and have a “Sh*t at ____” series where we try new hobbies (sporty and non-sporty)  in the Seattle area.

Currently, there’s a lot of pressure to monetize or be good at your hobbies. This is your chance to be passionately TERRIBLE at something - and have a great time doing it while potentially meeting your new best friends.

Our rules are:

1. Be sh*t at soccer or bring your “Sh*t at Soccer” energy.
2. No dudes! Sorry, guys.
3. Don’t be the reason we have to make a third rule.

We’re an intentionally queer group, and the host is a nonbinary lesbian. We welcome trans women, cis women, non-binary folks, and non-queer allies who want to play soccer and attend events without the guys around!

Sh*t at Soccer Kickabout/Pickup Game
Hosted weekly on Sundays at 11am, this is a social-oriented pickup game. You’re welcome to come if you’re good at soccer and here for the vibes, but you’ll have just as much fun if you’re shit. We don’t run drills or keep score, everybody cheers for everybody, and honestly, we’ll cheer for you more if you go for it and totally miss than if you get a perfect goal lol. We usually head to Pitch the Baby (a Women’s Sports Bar on Capitol Hill) after the game or if we get rained out. While it is technically a bar, plenty of us just hang out and grab a bite - drinking not required.

Our Kickabout is ALWAYS FREE, you don’t have to be in shape or have any gear to attend, and parking is ALSO FREE - so basically you have no excuse not to come ;)

Shit at _______
This is an event series that answers the sentiment “I’ve always wanted to try ______”. We do everything - from pottery painting to hiking to flag football and more. Regulars vote on what we want to do next, I (Ellie) set it up, then we spend an afternoon (or evening or day) being bad at whatever the thing is. It’s a lot of fun, it’s great for our non-soccer homies, and the occasional ticketed helps keep the soccer free!
