Stonewall Winter Sports Are Here!

Stonewall
Executive Director of PhillyGayCalendar

This Winter season, they are welcoming back dodgeball, volleyball, bowling, yoga, and trivia. Registration opens on Monday 12/13 at 7pm and closes Wednesday, 12/22 at 11:59 pm.

  • Cost: $55
  • When: Sundays, 12 – 6pm; 1/23 – 3/20 (no games 2/20)
  • Where: Bok Building (1901 S 9th Street – South Philadelphia)
  • Teams: 32 teams max. 
  • Leagues:
    • Social – Teams in the social league may register up to 20 players (12 min.) and will play 8 weeks of regular season play. This league is designed for teams/players of varying skill levels who value a fun social experience more than winning or losing! Game scores will be kept, but there will be no league standings or playoffs. **Stonewall reserves the right to move teams whose level of skill or competitiveness exceeds the spirit of this league, up to the competitive divisions at any point during the season**
    • Competitive – Teams in this league may register up to 18 players (12 min.) and will play round-robin on 1/23, 6 weeks of regular season games, and an end-of-season playoff tournament. Following the week-one round-robin, teams in this league will be split into divisions based on skill and competitiveness – the number of teams and divisions will be determined based on the number of teams in the league. While there is slightly more emphasis on winning and competition in this league – players are reminded that Stonewall is first and foremost an LGBTQ+ social and community-focused league – while all are welcomed, players looking for a primarily-competitive experience should note that this is not the central mission of Stonewall Sports.
  • Cost: $60
  • When: Mondays & Tuesdays*, 6 – 11pm; 1/24 – 3/15 
    • *Night of play will be determined based on league size and division breakdowns – players should anticipate that their team may play games on Mondays, Tuesdays, or a mix of both through the season. The full season schedule will be released in early January.
  • Where: Crane Community Center (1001 Vine St.)
  • Teams: 30 teams max.
  • Leagues:
    • Social – Teams in the social league may register up to 12 players (8 min.) and will play 8 weeks of regular season play. This league is designed for teams/players of varying, and especially lower skill levels who value a fun social experience more than winning or losing! Games scores will be kept, but there will be no league standings or playoffs. **Stonewall reserves the right to move teams whose level of skill or competitiveness exceeds the spirit of this league, up to the competitive divisions at any point during the season**
    • Competitive – Teams in this league may register up to 10 players (8min.) and will play 7 weeks of regular-season games and an end-of-season playoff tournament. Because volleyball is a very team and skill-specific sport, players and captains will be asked to rank both their individual and team skills, and teams will be split into divisions based on those rankings. The number of teams and divisions will be determined based on the number of teams in the league. 
  • Cost: $60
  • When: Thursdays, 6:30 – 10pm; 1/27 – 3/24
  • Where: Lucky Strike Lanes (1336 Chestnut St.) & St. Monica Lanes (1601 W Shunk St)
    • Play will occur at both venues. Teams should expect to play roughly half of their games at each location. See registration page for more details!
  • Teams: 40 teams max
  • League: 5 – 6 players per team (see registration page for more team details). All teams will bowl for 8 weeks. Top-ranked teams will play an end-of-season playoff tournament on week 8, with all others playing a regular-season game.

    • Season Pass: $90 – 18 sessions of Yoga (1/22 – 5/21). This option includes a Stonewall T-shirt or Tank and all 18 classes. Limited to 35 registrants.
