About Forest City Sport & Social Club (FCSSC)

Forest City Sport & Social Club (FCSSC) is a recreational sports and social organization located on Dundas St. in the Old East Village of London, Ontario. The club serves adults aged 19 and older, aiming to improve quality of life through fitness, community connection, and fun. It describes itself as "recess for adults," offering a variety of ways for people to get active and meet new friends. The club provides over 30 different leagues each season, running year-round through Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer seasons. These co-ed leagues are primarily recreational and self-officiated, with options for both intermediate and beginner play. Participants can register as full teams, as individuals who will be placed on a team, or as small groups of friends. In addition to league play, the club offers tournaments, outdoor adventures such as hiking, trail running, and snowshoeing, and various social events including speed dating, pub crawls, and road trips. They also host corporate events and 4 to 6 charity tournaments annually. For those seeking instruction rather than league play, the club offers seasonal classes and programs such as yoga, golf lessons, tennis lessons, and fitness programs like Mat Pilates and Fit Foundations. Membership with the club provides access to various perks, including benefits from sponsors and discounts at partner pubs where members may receive free food or drinks after games. The organization emphasizes an inclusive environment and offers specific programs like Queer Leagues to ensure a welcoming atmosphere for everyone. While league registrations are open to teams and individuals, the instructional classes and programs are available for individual registration only.
