whole new ball game

Suffering a little from baseball and basketball fatigue? This Saturday you’ll have a chance to try out newly minted athletic endeavors at the Tournament of Games in the Jackson Park Playground on Potrero hill. The fresh sports include New Games and new New Games such as Earthball, Slaughter, Parachute, Gig Economy and Containerization Tag. The […]

toss up

Bay seniors who haven’t been paying attention for the last decade will discover that those undergrad afternoons spent tossing Frisbees has now become a real sport. This Saturday at 6 pm at Laney College you can witness an Ultimate Frisbee game between our own SF Flamethrowers vs. the Seattle Cascades. The rules are a little murky to […]

women warriors

Bay senior women looking for their day in court might want to consider joining the Upstarts, a basketball league of ladies over 45. They get together every Sunday from 10-11:30 at Oak Knoll School in Menlo Park and do drills as well as 5×5 and 3×3 play. Usually 6 to 20 women show up from […]

batter up

Sports-minded Bay Area seniors who don’t know a batsman from a dink should check out the cricket action around here. Even though its recent surge in popularity  has been fueled by the growing South Asian community it has been played locally since 1881. There is a surprisingly active league especially in the South Bay during […]

take a bow

Bay seniors who have always suspected they were born in the wrong century might want to try out the Middle Ages this weekend. Sunday at the Archery Field in Golden Gate Park you are invited to the Debarchery, the Society for Creative Anachronisms’ annual pre-Renaissance faire. From 10 to 5  these backward looking folk with […]

tomorrowland

Bay seniors harboring serious concerns about America’s ability to innovate are invited to the San Mateo County Events Center this weekend for the annual Maker’s Faire (don’t ask me why they spell their name in Middle English). 900 exhibits showcase the DIY skills of hugely imaginative techies. There’s a robotics competition, drone games, hacker races, […]

old sport

Bay senior tennis afficionados facing the bitter truth of knee replacements, have a quasi-embarrassing option in the new sport of pickleball (who came up with that ridiculous name). The net is lower, the court is smaller, the racket is bigger and the ball is 1/3 the speed of tennis ones. A lot of folks are […]

it’s war!

Bay seniors with a healthy sense of aggression will enjoy letting out their inner NRA at DartOps in San Bruno’s Tanforan Mall. It’s like a clean version of Paintball. You airblast soft darts at targets or each other in games like Capture the Flag and Team Death March. Starts at $5 per 30-minute game. Intended […]
