We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/toronto-ON/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott

A well-trodden trail with food gems at the end. Guildwood was a former artists' colony and has an idyllic setting close to the Scarborough bluffs. It's a weird mish-mash of attractions and we'll check out every one of them. Then it's down to the lake shore, a popular hiking trail. The eastern approach to the cliffs goes past an iconic sculpture before swinging up an invigorating hill. Guildwood does not have good food. The handful of good restaurants in this hike are at the end, in Scarborough Village. There's an excellent Egyptian restaurant with an ambitious menu, a Haitian supermarket, and a unique dining experience in a retirement residence. A trio of South Asian restaurants await at the end, where you can choose between Sri Lankan, Kerala, and Tamil food. Or try them all. **Highlights** 1. Clark Centre for the Arts (depart 4pm) 2. Guild Inn 3. Greek theatre and scattered statuary 4. South Marine Park 5. Scarborough Bluffs 6. Passage sculpture (depart 5:15pm) 7. Doris McCarthy Trail / Gates Gully 8. Haitians Food Market 9. Aragoz 10. Momiji / Maru Sun Japanese Restaurant 11. Scarborough Village Theatre (depart 6:10pm) 12. Cornell Campbell House 13. Premium Sweets 14. King of Taste / Tharavadu Home Of Kerala Cuisine / Namma Madurai (arrive 6:40pm) **Neighbourhoods** Guildwood > Scarborough Village **Map** [https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=14edeBtVwC8vnT40YPt8BG7XVXxPd3kU&usp=sharing](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=14edeBtVwC8vnT40YPt8BG7XVXxPd3kU&usp=sharing) Long, steep uphill at Doris McCarthy Trail. **How it works** Hike starts punctually.

Free 1-hour workshop on how your food choices are silently killing your productivity, and what to do about it. ### **You're not unproductive. You're underfueled.** You show up every day ready to perform, but by mid-morning the focus is already slipping. By 2 PM you're running on your third coffee. By 6 PM you're completely done. Most people blame their schedule, their sleep, or their stress levels. But here's what nobody is talking about: the food choices happening throughout your day are directly shaping your energy, your clarity, and your output. And most professionals have no idea it's even happening. ### **Event Agenda** 6:00 PM – Doors Open & Guest Arrival 6:00 – 6:30 PM – Networking Session 6:30 – 7:30 PM – Workshop 7:30 – 7:45 PM – Q&A Session 7:45 – 8:30 PM – Networking & Refreshments ### **What This Workshop Is About** *Your Performance Plate* is a free, one-hour live workshop designed to show you exactly how workplace food habits are quietly costing you hours of productive, high-quality work every single day, and what to do about it. This isn't a diet talk. It's not about eating perfectly or overhauling your life. It's practical, science-backed nutrition knowledge applied specifically to how you work, think, and perform. ### **What You'll Walk Away With** * A clear understanding of why energy crashes, brain fog, and afternoon slumps happen and what's actually driving them * The specific food patterns that are most common in professional settings and exactly how they affect cognitive performance * Simple, realistic shifts you can make to your daily meals that protect your focus and sustain your energy through the full workday * A new way of thinking about food; not as a health topic, but as a performance tool ### **Who This Is For** This workshop is for anyone who works hard and wants their body and brain to keep up with them. Whether you're running a business, leading a team, managing a packed calendar, or simply trying to get through the day without hitting a wall, if energy and focus matter to your work, this session was built for you. ### **About Amisha** Amisha Moorjani is the founder of The Food Quotient, a nutrition and performance practice focused on helping professionals and teams use food as a tool for sustained energy, sharper thinking, and better output. Her approach is practical, research-informed, and built for real life, not ideal conditions. **This event is completely free.** Seats are limited, reserve yours now.
