Hey founders 👋

Tired of the same boring events?
Us too.
We're just a bunch of builders who trade screen time for court time—and somehow, it works ✨Join 20+ founders, builders, and backers—from tech to food, fashion to social impact—who've discovered the perfect way to start their week: amazing people, fresh air, and a sport that's way more fun than it sounds!



What We're About

This isn't your typical founder meetup.Look, we get it. You're building something incredible, but sometimes you need to step away from the screen and actually connect with humans who get the journey.No pitch decks. No awkward small talk over iced coffee. Just real conversations that happen naturally while you're having fun.Think of it as your monthly reset. Come as yourself, leave the LinkedIn version at home.
