I play soccer with my coworkers every Wednesday night through ZogSports. The soccer part of it has been fun, to be sure, but the real reason we all go is to hang out with our referee, Nathan. He's a gem of a human and a first-class referee. Thanks for introducing us to Nathan, ZogSports. We're eternally indebted to you. read more

Going on 3 years with Zog. Consistent competition and super organized leagues. Highly recommend in San Francisco!

I was aching to find a well established volleyball league in the city of SF when I moved here. I found zog sports. I play every Tuesday and Wednesday. The Wednesday league is much more advanced so if you know you are good then ask to be placed on the Wednesday league! The cool part of zog sports is you play 3 games every week, even if your team wins the first 2 (so it isn't best out of 3, it is a total of 3 games) . The staff is super professional. Jason (the Sports and Expansion coordinator) who handles a lot of the business for all the teams is super quick to respond to emails and very helpful if you have any questions. 5 stars for sure! read more

Best indoor volleyball league I have found in the Bay Area. The competition is good, the teams are friendly and the league is run very well. I look forward to many more seasons to come! read more

I had been looking for outdoor soccer in Oakland, CA for months and was glad to hear Zogsports started running a league here. Zogsports provides the right combination of sports with social activity. Our soccer fields are right across from a bar with great specials which makes post-game socializing very easy and convenient. I am the team captain of a soccer team and Zogs is incredibly responsive and helpful. Very well run league! -Marko read more

ZogSports has been a great way to meet new people. Love that there are different levels that you can play in depending on how competitive you/your team may be. Well organized and have only run into a few issues during a season (doors to the building being locked, not being able to find staff to open the gym/equipment rooms, etc.) read more

I LOVE ZogSports! I started playing football with Zog when they first came to SF last year and it was pretty small then - only football and only a handful of teams. I joined a team with alumni from my university, plus some randos, and we're now on our third season together! It's a great combination of meeting new people, friendly competition, socializing at the happy hours afterwards, and contributing to charity if even in a small way. Highly recommend for groups of friends and especially for individuals looking to expand their circle! read more

I've been playing with ZogSports for almost a year now, and it has been a great way for me to meet new people and stay active. The staff does a great job to encourage participation, and every single person I've met through Zog since I've joined has been nothing but friendly and kind. Highly recommend if you are looking to play casually/competitively with good people and a great staff! read more

I have been playing volleyball and other sports for the past 2 years with Zogsports SF. It is a good way to meet new people, play competitive sports and have some fun. Zog is very flexible with your schedule as they have a lot of leagues, sports, and different nights to choose from. They are very organized for how big they are. I highly recommend for someone that is new or even someone who has lived in the city for years!I read more

I love playing in Zog games. They have a great balance of competitiveness and light hearted fun. Sure, sometimes competition can get a little heated, but the players are friendly, honest, and good sports! I had not played competitive soccer in over 10 years and felt a wee bit apprehensive about breaking into the scene but my unease was laid to rest after getting involved in Zog games. They give me a great reason to stay in better shape, keep my soccer skills sharp and provide a great social outlet. Additionally, whenever I've had any issues trying to help organize our team for the season, Jimmy Neilly and the rest of the Zog staff have been super helpful and flexible in navigating the administrative bit. Covid has thrown the last year out of the picture, but I'm super glad that league play is getting started again. I Would definitely recommend Zog to others. read more

I played Volleyball back in High School and was looking for a way to get back into it. I heard about ZogSports and signed up. I had no idea who my team was going to be, but was super excited to start. Once we got started and I got to know my team, we have had a great time. We may not win all our games, but we have fun and are looking forward to next season! The organized happy hours afterwards are super fun and all for a great cause! I've enjoyed Zog so much that I am now getting a team together to play dodgeball! Anyone looking for their old sport, looking to meet to people, or try something new this is a great way to do it! read more

Since COVID happened they are not refunding anybody, instead giving credit. I have moved away from an area with zog and asked if they could make an exception since I can't sign up for a league since I don't physically live where zog is. They still refused. If I ever move back to an area that has it, I definitely won't be signing up. read more

I am torn on my review because this league is both awesome and terrible at the same time depending on what sport you play. I have played Zog Sports volleyball (non contact sport) for over a year now and love it! I have made awesome friends and it is a good way for me to get some exercise. On the other end of the spectrum I joined Zog Sports basketball for the first time and it will be my last. The rules for basketball and the refs that are hired are terrible and promote injury to the players. No one can get fouled out, all jump balls go in favor of the defense and there is no person keeping track of score and time. The refs have to keep track of time and if neither team has a sub then they have to keep track of score too! I wrote about these rules and conditions to Zog Sports after our second game, but it seems the conditions will not change anytime soon. The next game after writing that email two of my teammates got seriously injured with one getting poked in the eye and a foul not getting called while the other teammate got hit hard on a drive and is out for 2 weeks per doctor's orders. Please Zog, follow the basketball rules and conditions like the rest of the 99% of basketball leagues in California and hire good refs for contact sports and a person to keep track of fouls, time and score. read more

ZogSports has without a doubt helped make my transition to San Francisco easier. As much as a new city is exciting, being the new kid can sometimes suck. Zogs definitely took the edge off by introducing me to a great group of people who had the same passion as I do for sports. The management team at Zogs got me set up right away and have been and continue to be helpful and supportive with any questions myself or my teams have. I highly recommend ZogSports to those new to the city and to those who aren't so new. It's an amazing way to have fun playing a sport you love, try a sport you've always wanted to try or just meet new people and have an awesome time. read more

Been playing indoor volleyball with Zog for several years now. They do a great job of getting a lot of repeat teams in the leagues and matching the quality of play so you can have fun but get those competitive juices flowing. Plus we get to play in OJ's high school gym...how cool is that! Thanks Zog. read more

My friends and I have been playing in the Co-ed Weeknight Basketball league with Zog for several years now! It's been a great way for us to hangout every week despite everyone's busy work schedules. The league is well organized and they donate part of the proceeds to a charity of your choice (if you win) which is a bonus! read more

I have been playing indoor volleyball through zog for about 10 seasons now. I moved to SF without knowing that many people and this has been a great way to make friends! There are many levels of play and they do a great job of placing your team so it is competitive but still fun! read more

I moved to SF two years ago and signed up for Zog Indoor Weekday Volleyball completely stag. From that very first season, I met one of my closest friends and the two of us have gone on to build a team of people who have been playing with each other over the past 5 seasons. I even got my firm to sponsor a corporate team for their Monday night league and it was obviously totally worth it! The various levels of play offer an opportunity for even the most inexperienced players the chance to meet people and break a sweat and the more competitive teams are frequently homes to high school/college former athletes so there really is something for everyone. I'll continue to play Zog for as long as I can, my team as well, and I HIGHLY recommend it if you are new to the city and looking to meet people. The key is to get your team to go out either after or before for drinks, or just to hang, so that you can get to know each other better and ultimately become more comfortable and cohesive as teammates. I've played in other leagues in the city as well, just to have the opportunity to play more volleyball each week, however Zog is by far the most organized and professional and their staff are incredibly friendly, helpful and frequently onsite at games. Their refs are knowledgeable and take the time to review rules and regulations in case you have any questions or challenges to a call. I can't say enough positive things about Zog but if you're still on the fence, chat with Nick or any of the staff members you'll find on their website; they won't point you in the wrong direction! read more

I've been playing volleyball at Galileo with Zog for quite a few seasons now. I grew up playing volleyball, and was looking for a way to reconnect in the city. Zog has been fabulous - great officials, super fun teams and a great way to get back into the sport. I highly recommend for anyone interested in having a good time and meeting new people! read more

I've played the past several indoor soccer seasons with ZogSports in SF. Overall it has been a very positive experience. Well organized, fun games, etc. there have been a few games in which the ref failed to show up, which kept this from being 5-star rating. read more

ZogSports is a good mix of competitive and casual and provides a great environment for everyone to meet new people. Have played a few seasons of the coed touch football league and each time has been a ton of fun. For being co-Ed, it's still pretty competitive. Both the Galileo and Crocker amazon fields are turf. Parking around Galileo is terrible so would suggest ubering if you don't live nearby. Chris and Nick are always super helpful and reply quickly if you have questions about league logistics. Wish they still had the PayByGroup registration payment option - made life easier to coordinate with 15 people for sign ups and payment. read more

I play in a bunch of different leagues and this one was by far the worst. With a few exceptions, the level of play in this league was really for people just starting out in soccer. While certainly, there's nothing wrong with a beginner league, the refs just don't call fouls and don't seem to understand the game. Anybody who's played knows that beginners are the ones who are most likely to foul you hard, not intentionally, but just because they don't know what they're doing. After playing a game where players on my team suffered multiple injuries due to hard fouls with the ref basically having no idea what was going on, I quit the league mid-game and never looked back. In my interaction with Jimmy from Zog, he demonstrated a complete lack of concern over player safety never once inquiring about our injured players. Add in to this non-standard rules that hurt game play (for no reason anybody can figure out), size 4 balls that aren't properly inflated and courts that are ok but not as good as many other places to play and its hard to figure out why anybody plays this league. *** UPDATE *** In response to Nicks response to me : well, if that was at all what happened, that would certainly sound bad. The fact is I did yell at your ref after she let one of our players get injured and then called a foul on HER for complaining about it ... and so did everybody else. Everybody yelled at her. I was just the loudest. And I wasn't the person who either fouled or played hard... I was a mere witness to all that. I never threatened the ref, I never came back into the gym, and yes, I did quit well before there was any talk of ejection. And since a couple of members of the opposing team apologized to us for their rough play after the game, you'd understand how your arguments ring hollow. You've simply gotten the facts wrong so many times in our conversations at this point, its clear you're just trying to make excuses for your company. Its pretty obvious your ref lied to you to cover her own ass for basically letting things get out of hand completely. I get that you're trying to protect yourself by spinning this around but you continuing to repeat a lie and basically slander me to other players to protect yourself is basically the pattern I've come to expect from you. And STILL there has been no real concern about player safety. You've still never asked about the injured players (there were more than one that game). Players are going to have to ask themselves: do I really want to play in a league that is fairly dangerous and I stand a pretty decent chance of getting injured and if I ever do complain about that fact, the owners are going to basically come at me with everything they have to try to protect themselves. Save your entry fee and go find a decent game at Crocker-Amazon. read more

My friend and I were looking for ways to be more active and social, and found ZogSports in our search. We signed up for dodge ball and now Thursdays have become the highlight of my week. This is by far one of the most fun leagues I have been a part of. They hold true their values of sportsmanship and the other members are very supportive no matter your skill level. The post game happy hours are well organized and great for team bonding. I am looking forward to the rest of the season and joining some of their other leagues! read more

I've been playing volleyball with zog in the east bay for a year and a half now. Great combination of competition and fun.

Great way to meet new people, have fun, drink beer, play cornhole! What more could you ask for?

Moving to a new city can be pretty daunting. Its not easy making friends as a dude in your late 20s. Luckily I found ZogSports a few months after moving here from Arizona and have had nothing but positive experiences since. Besides making new friends Ive been able to start playing basketball again. Everything from registration to scheduling to the games have been super efficient and easy as a participant, I just show up, play and enjoy the happy hour. Thanks Zogsports! read more

I've played in intramural leagues in every city I've lived in and Zog stands out as the best I've played in yet. The staff are incredibly helpful and easy to reach, their very accommodating to scheduling conflicts, and overall just a pleasant group to be a part of. Highly recommended to anyone thinking about doing intramurals in SF. read more

I've played in ZogSports in Los Angeles (Softball) and San Francisco (Softball and Soccer). The teams are fun to play with, and games go smoothly! I would love to see the social aspect of the league emphasized a little more in the Bay Area ZogSports leagues like it is in Los Angeles. It's a really great opportunity to meet with cool people and get some competition while you're at it! read more

Love that this is one of the few orgs in San Francisco that hosts indoor court volleyball!

I've been playing Zog Volleyball for 2 years since I've moved up to San Francisco. It's a great way to meet people and stay active! I've done free agent teams and signed up as a whole team and both very great experiences. The league is very well organized and if you win the league, you get to donate to a charity of your choice on behalf of Zog (pretty awesome). I continuously recommend Zog to friends and keep coming back to play. I highly recommend them to you as well. read more

ZogSports has been a great place to meet new friends, come closer with old ones, and get some fun, competitive sports into a work filled week! The ranges of sports are awesome and I've joined volleyball, kickball, and basketball leagues. We have played with Zog for 2 years and plan join the next session (if the prices stay reasonable!). read more

Zog is great! Everyone is nice and just out there to have a good time. My friends and I have had a lot of fun playing volleyball. Definitely recommend! read more

I have played Zog volleyball the past 6 years and have made some great friends and had a lot of fun! I recommend joining as a full team so you can keep it to a smaller group whereas the free agent teams can sometimes be large. There is a ref and a user friendly website. Definitely recommend! read more

I've been playing in various rec volleyball leagues in the Bay Area for the past 6 years and I've had generally positive experiences with Zog volleyball. Most notably, the organization is very professional and does a great job of customer service. Their website is extremely helpful. My only criticism of the leagues is that the level of play can be quite variable. Often you will find a mix of total beginners and ex-collegiate players on the court at the same time. Luckily players tend to be super nice, so it is still a fun experience if you know what you are in for. read more

I'll be finishing up my first ever Zog volleyball league within a couple weeks, and I have already signed up for my next! With several different tiers of competition, games are a blast no matter your skill level. A fun thing to schedule with coworkers, friends, or join as a free agent. read more

Zog is awesome! So happy that they made it out to SF. Before moving to SF I used to play Zog in NYC, and made some of my best friends through the organization. Everyone is nice and just out to have a good time. They have some really fun leagues and have organized some great happy hours for everyone after. It's a perfect way to enjoy the SF weather on a weekend. read more

I played multiple sports with Zogsports in NY for several years and I am so excited that Zogsports has finally made it to SF! As some other reviewers have also said, I met a lot of my good friends in NY through Zogsports both through my teams and at happy hours. I currently play touch football and volleyball with Zogsports and in contrast to other sports leagues I have experienced in SF, Zogsports is unbelievably well organized and a completely professional organization. Finally, having money donated to your selected charity makes winning that much better. I highly recommend Zogsports to anyone looking to have fun, stay active, meet great people, and give something back to the community. read more

Fun way to stay active in SF! Great Social group. Good competitive, but fun level of ultimate

If you're looking to play any sports with a fun group of people, zog sports is the league for you. I've been in the league for almost 2 years now and the zog sports team has always treated my team ans I well. They have a ton of sports that they offer at different times on different days. Not to mention you get to play near ocean beach, however it does get chilly sometimes. read more

Loads of fun to play soccer - good organization, sometimes the refs are a bit aloof, but overall the games are nice and well organized. Have been playing for over a year now and plan on doing so for a while! read more
