*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
City/Town: Zurich
Event Type: Sports
Meeting Point: Primitivo, Oberer Letten

By popular request: Beach Volley on Monday nights in Zürich!

where? Primitivo, Oberer Letten, Wasserwerkstrasse, 8006 Zurich
Tel: +41 (0)76 383 05 50 http://www.primitivo.ch. This is an open air restaurant that also has 2 sand courts (and massage apparently!). We can meet at the courts
when? Monday nights at 19h only if the weather is good!
what to bring? I'll bring a volleyball, but if you happen to have one, feel free to bring it too. The primitivo restaurant does not open until half May, so you might want to bring food (there is some grills)/drinks if you like. Your bikini for a jump in the Letten. And your good humour.
How do I get there?Tram 13 in direction Frankenthal or Tram 4 in direction Werdholzli from Bahnhofquai stop Dammweg, then 5 min. walk

It is allowed to just hang out and socialize and watch (unless you're a creep), but playing is obviously much more fun! All playlevels welcome!

Friday afternoon bump

what better way to end a sunny long weekend then by playing a game of beach volley and enjoying some grilled meat while watching the scarcely cladded crowd of Züri?

come join us for beach volley on Monday evening.
Uncle Max is right (as usual), it's a busy, popular spot and sport, so we'll see if we find a spot, but it will be fun anyways!

Yep!

Rolling around in sand -- it's cheaper than a spa treatment!

Re: Beach Volley, Zurich

I'm hoping I can make it as I am still hungover from last night/this morning, I tried playing some football to get some sun, but I still don't feel even 75%. After dinner with the relatives I'll see if I can scoot down for a visit.

Bis spaeter....Ich hoffe

Kev

Re: Beach Volley, Zurich

bought a ball on Saturday (I have to warn you: it's pretty hard and hurtful on the arms) and practised a little yesterday on the Primitivo sandpitch. I'm very up for it!
