THIS IS A BLAST! So…read moreI was playing in another kickball league here in town (we'll call em WAKA) and it was one of the worst experiences I've had in a social sports community. So when I came to NAKID I was not expecting much different, but was stunned at how different and how much more fun I had! My team is the Awful Waffles which was a team in a different league, we were all so fed up with the competiveness of the other leagues. Where they cuss you out if you make a bad play, make a bad call as a ref, basically have no regard for sportsmanship, and to top it off the league is ran by douchebags.It was so refreshing to come to NAKID, its fun still competitive(in a good way) AWESOME TROPHYS, cute girls for you guys out there, as well as flip cup tournaments every week!!! (AHHH HEAVEN!!) You gotta give it a shot!

There are some business names that scream, "Try Me"! Like "G-spot Thrift Store",…read more "Bite Mi," "Mooseknuckle", or...NAKID Social Sports. Anyone who patronizes those businesses is bound to be the kind of person who doesn't take themselves or life too seriously. So, one star for the concept and creation of Austin's Chapter of NAKID and one star to the fun ppl I met during the 8 weekly showdowns of ball-kicking during the actual game and ass-kicking during the subsequent flip-cup games. The withheld stars speak to the management of the league, to the abundance of fluff in advertising, and lack of information given to players. The owner/mgr actually lives in DC and apparently that chapter does well--proof that actually being available during the games is a real bonus. Instead, he flies down for the first game to welcome everyone, for all of 15 minutes, and for the closing ceremonies of awarding the trophy. In between, he is not attentive during registration nor during the season. For example, Tshirt sizes requested were totally ignored...we got way too many smalls and not nearly enough medium and larges as ordered. We showed up for the first game, and I--a newbie--was dubbed Captain. NO rules, nada. Quickly downloaded the iphone ap. Presto, ready to go. There are other instances, but the most irritating was when he emailed to survey which of two given dates we wanted the playoffs. After the votes were in and the date set, he emailed to tell us that the date was being moved to a date (that didn't work for almost my entire team!) not before mentioned bc some players wanted to attend the UT football game. I'm an Orangeblood, but really....? As it turned out, many of us weren't able to attend the playoffs. Considering that many of the players were non-paying (solicited by NAKID friends so they'd have enough players to form a league), this was a rip-off. The fluff pertains to the amt of free alcohol that turned out to be quite limited. IF you are the reffing team that week, your team gets a $20 tab at Gibsons--not enough for one drink per player if all your players showed up. Our first trip into Gibson's found them surprised at our arrival. Apparently, there was no prior arrangement made and NAKID was assuming that last season's deals were still applicable. We ended up standing around until someone figured out what that arrangement was. by the way, Gibson's was fantastic about all this! The "partying" they advertised amounted to a bus trip for a winery tour, which looked fun for the 8 or so ppl who went. Too bad we weren't told about its impending possibility until too late. INcidentally, all 8 were from one team whose lead player picks up and brings the equipment to the games (an assistant? don't know, was never told--she is super nice though). As for information dissemination, they wanted us to sign up on meetup website, which I did. As a result, I got emails as well as meetup messages, almost none of which were redundant and yet neither one had full details. There was no go-to place for information. For ex, one week we showed up for the game to find no one there except for a few players from some other team (not our scheduled opponents). Apparently the games were moved to another field not in sight of where we were scheduled to play. A stroke of luck --contacting the roommate of one of the players in the know--got us to the correct fields and by the time games started, it was already becoming dark--not good for catching flying balls. IN kickball at least. I am glad to have experienced Gibson's (free, fun Bingo on Thurs nights), Luke's Inside Out (great food trailer), and Flip Cup (my college drinking game--quarters--is outdated). In sum, this league is not "a skid-mark on the underpants of society" (movie, Dodgeball), but I think I'd rather spend my time at Mooseknuckle, in my newly acquired hot pants from G-spot, playing Flip Cup and following it with nibbles at Bite Mi.

Having just come home, fresh off our first win, I'm giddy like a little girl…read more Maybe it was tonight's pouring rain? Or perhaps, it was the kegger at home plate? Or possibly, it was a combination of all these things complete with the new friends we've made thanks to this journey. Old friends, new friends. Young friends, Old friends. Whatever the case, Monday night's have never been so much fun! Team IcyHots started out a smattering of friends, acquaintances, yelpers, complete strangers....a few short weeks later, we're teammates, friends, WINNERS! But to tell you the truth, even if we'd lost every single game, it wouldn't have made a bit of difference. WAKA rules!

(The tipsy part is DEFINITELY part of the costume....)They have great parties, and I love parties.

He's a handsome fella who has big plans for Trapped in the Closet. (I also love R. Kelly). I love being catcher (not a euphemism), because I love chatting with all of the other kickball players that I love. There's nothing not to love about WAKA.

This league is unorganized and dysfunctional. I would recommend not playing in this league. A bunch…read moreof people signed up to play basketball on one team as free agents. That team got too big and the league allowed one member of the team to pick and decide who they wanted on their team. The couple other people who weren't chosen for the team, got placed on a random team full of free agents they didn't know. There was no fair chance to be on the team that you originally signed up for. Make it random? Make it first ten to stay on the team? Nope. One person on the team got to decide who gets to stay and who has to be placed randomly. The league has not taken ownership of the problem or try to remediate the situation for those who were negatively impacted. I definitely would not recommend paying money to this league when they can't get their act together and be a fair league. Overall, horrible first time experience with this league. DO NOT SIGN UP TO PLAY!

I can't say enough good things about T3. Where do I even begin? T3 is basically a triathlon…read moretraining group, but it is so much more than that. They are hard core about getting you to a level you never knew existed, yet fun loving and very team spirited at the same time. The coaches are awesome and I feel like I have gained so much from training with them. If you are just a beginner at triathlons or an experienced triathlete, this is a group that embraces people of all levels and goals. There are people of all ages and ranges that train for the sprint, olympic, half ironman, and ironman distances. I started back in April of 2008, with their swim clinic. Yea, I could swim..maybe doggie paddle swim a couple 50 meters or so, but I REALLY didn't know HOW to swim. They taught me how to do it efficiently, with proper technique. 1 year ago I couldn't swim one length of Barton Springs without freaking out or hyperventilating. Swimming was the only thing keeping me from competing in a triathlon...but here I am now training for a half ironman. Yes I knew how to run..yes I had a bike, but really I didn't know how to put all the pieces together. With them, you have coaches to help you, teammates to push you along the way and give you advice, and practices that will kick your ass. Another great thing about the group is that they have a very flexible training schedule that can work for anyone and everyone. They have swim practices everyday (morning, lunchtime, and night), they have spin class 3 times a week at different times, they have track and run practice 3 times a week as well. On weekends there are group long rides and runs. You don't have to be a triathlete to join, many people train in all 3 sports, 2 sports or even just 1 pf the sports. The skies the limit with flexibility. If you are looking for a triathlon group to train with, this is IT. I don't mean to sound like this is some marketing ploy, because it's not. This is the real deal, and I am willing to put the smack down on anyone that chooses to challenge this review, because T3 is absolutely, positively THE shit.

I love Austin Social Sports Club! I have done the flag football here for about four years and…read moredefinitely like it here the best. With this league you have to wait until five seconds pass until you can rush the quarterback, which actually allows receivers to run downfield and to let the plays develop. Every third play is a gender play, which means both guys and ladies get involved in making the catches. The refs here also do a really good job, so shout out to Austin for making it happen with good calls on the field. It is a bit of a drive out to Del Valle, but the fields there are really nice and it's just a good vibe/environment. My fiancé & I have done several seasons of cornhole at Bouldin Acres, and have had a great time in that league too. We have also done their kickball league in the past which is also fun, and the 4s Sand Volleyball at Moontower is also a blast! Definitely recommend this league and they offer other sports too.

I appreciate ASSC for organizing all of this at all but I do think it could have been better. It…read morekind of feels like they do the bear minimum so I don't feel like this is anything special. And to make things worse I had a really bad experience when I couldn't find my shirt. They wouldn't let me play and didn't offer any alternatives like buying another shirt on site so we had to forfeit the game which really sucked. I understand wearing the shirt is a rule but you have to have a way to work around issues that come up. And honestly it's pretty ridiculous that they only give you one shirt that you have to wear every week.

Austin Performance is by far the premier volleyball program in Central Texas! My daughter has been…read morepart of this organization for the past five years, and I cannot say enough about the quality of coaching, training, and leadership. The coaching staff is not only knowledgeable and highly skilled, but also deeply invested in the growth and success of every athlete. Thanks to their dedication, my daughter's skill level has reached heights we never could have imagined when she first started. It's important not to be misled by a few negative reviews. In such a competitive environment, not every player will make the top teams or play the position their parents hope for. Unfortunately, some parents let disappointment turn into frustration, which does not reflect the true spirit or value of this program. The reality is that Austin Performance is committed to placing athletes where they will grow and succeed--decisions that are always made with the best interest of the players and the team in mind. What truly sets Austin Performance apart is their mission. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, their focus extends far beyond volleyball. Their goal is to empower young women by building confidence, character, and leadership--qualities that last long after the final whistle. I have personally seen my daughter grow not just as an athlete, but as a person. Her confidence, discipline, and resilience have flourished because of the culture and support provided by this program. If you are looking for a volleyball organization that combines elite training with genuine care for your daughter's development both on and off the court, Austin Performance is the place to be.

Flash forward a year later, a brief winter hiatus, and 15 lessons later, I now have a 95% overhand serve rate (no more underhand serving for this gal), and look halfway decent when attacking the ball. The usual attendees are around intermediate level (since they've been going for a while), but everyone is super supportive no matter what level you are! They post the daily training focus on their IG week by week so you can drop in whenever to do drills and receive proper training on improving in that skill (ex. Setting v passing v hitting etc). It's also a great way to start your day and get in a few games before work since it runs quite on time from 7:30am-9am on the dot!
