Brooms and Ball, but No Wizards
By Dave Caldwell

"Mr. Gonzalez...signed up for Broomball because he grew up playing street hockey in Brooklyn and thought the program would be a fun way to meet people."

"The NYC Social Sports Club puts a heavy emphasis on the word “social” in its name..."
 

"[One captain] started his team with co-workers, and said the league is a 'low-cost morale booster' for the company."

" 'It makes you feel like you are 10 years old,' said a banker and Kickball player who also moonlights as a paid umpire for the league."
 

"For the past five years, the NYC Social Sports Club (NYCSSC) has been helping adults blow off a little steam, connect with new and old friends and reconnect with the games that defined their childhood."

"Build community -- make some new friends -- and maybe even make a 'love connection."
