Casual Tennis in Burgess Park 🎾

Join our WhatsApp group and sign up at [www.thesocialsport.com](www.thesocialsport.com)! Our weekly casual tennis session in Burgess Park. We play every Sunday afternoon (times may vary slightly week on week). **What is Social Sport?** Social Sport was set up to face two main challenges in cities like London: 1. Limited opportunities for those moving here to meet new people and socialise in a genuine, healthy way. 2. Lack of casual sports clubs for young professionals. We started with our New Sport Every Week session, voted for by people in our community. Since then, we have played over 21 different sports. Our weekly casual sessions allow us to create communities around certain sports. **Please note this session is popular and has a set number of places. If you do not secure your place before attending and the event is full, you may not be able to play.**

BIG FREE TEiP PARTY IN THE PARK • REGENTS PARK | Thought Experiments in Pubs

We're having a PARTY! 🎈😊 Where I plan to announce an exciting new (and free) thing from the 'house of TEiP' 💭 Sign up to our newsletter to [hear about upcoming events first](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/) 💌 Instagram [scrapbook and thought provoking stuff](https://www.instagram.com/thoughtexperimentsinpubs) ❤️ **Last year** **it rained... and we still had an amazing time** with a great turn out and some creative collective problem solving! So things can only get better if it happens to be a sunny day (shh, don't jinx it). As usual, we will discuss three **thought experiments** (tiny stories designed to invite different conversations, ideas, and connections). The theme is still to be decided... **let me know your suggestions** in the comments or on [@thoughtexperimentsinpubs](https://www.instagram.com/thoughtexperimentsinpubs) 😊 The **[EXACT LOCATION](https://what3words.com/life.loves.precautions)** \- \(see directions below\) **The idea:** A chance to meet and get straight into meaningful conversations - both [deep and light](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/light-and-dark-levity-and-depth) are welcome! **How we'll do it** (timings approximate)**:** * 3:00pm - Meet in the park ([exact location](https://what3words.com/life.loves.precautions)) * Organise ourselves into small groups (3-6ish) * Have a look at the thought experiments (posted in the comments on the day of the event). * 3:15pm - First rotation begins - Talk about the first thought experiment. Feel free to let your conversations flow organically and wander off topic. If you'd like to bring things back, you have several 'questions to consider' that you can suggest to the group. * 3:40pm - Optional shuffle: swap groups, move on to the second thought experiment. * 4:10pm - Optional shuffle: swap groups, move on to the third thought experiment. * 4:40pm - Votes! (optional, unscientific votes to get a sense of the group's opinions) 5:00 - Organised meetup ‘ends’. Party continues! **Notes on the general atmosphere:** * The vibe is to let conversation flow rather than stick strictly to one topic. * While we'd like to talk about 'meaningful things', we also see the value in lighter topics, so don't worry about not being 'deep' enough! * Feel free to suggest ideas for future Thought Experiments in Pubs meetup groups, both in terms of structure and topics to discuss. **Who should come:** Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in Philosophy, it is about *doing* philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality... etc. etc.... **What to bring**: * Something to sit on - picnic rug, plastic bag, whatever you prefer * Drinks/snacks for yourself (you can share if you want to, but there's no pressure) * Layers, sunglasses, umbrella... it's London **Where we'll meet:** * Very precise location: https://what3words.com/life.loves.precautions * General location/directions: The nearest entrances to the park are Gloucester Gate or Chester Road. The meeting point is near the Broadwalk, on the Eastern edge of the playing fields. **I have chosen this spot because there is a cafe (with toilets) close by, there are trees for shade/shelter, and it worked really well last year**. * Our banners will be hanging in the trees, so we should be easy to spot! (see the attached photos for what to look out for.)

TEiP DEEP: A small group, deep dive into a single Thought Experiment

A **smaller, quieter, and less rushed** edition of THOUGHT EXPERIMENTS IN PUBS. Sign up to our newsletter to [hear about upcoming events first](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/) 💌 Instagram [scrapbook and thought provoking stuff](https://www.instagram.com/thoughtexperimentsinpubs) ❤️ At TEiP DEEP, we have the chance to spend a whole hour and a half on **one thought experiment**, exploring different perspectives, coming up with new questions, listening and learning from one another. **How it works:** \- We split into small groups for each chapter of the thought experiment \(3\-4\)\. \- We shuffle every 25 mins to meet new people and change things up\. \- And at the end we'll have a brief group reflection\, sharing ideas and insights \- this will be lightly facilitated to ensure that everyone has a chance to speak if they want to \(no pressure\)\. Some simple ground rules to keep our conversation the best it can be: * respect for one another’s perspectives, beliefs, time (etc.) * confidentiality of personal stories * own your perspective * you don’t have to talk if you don’t want to. Our aim is the same as our bigger Thought Experiments in Pubs meetups: **a chance to meet and talk at about meaningful, thought provoking things**. Although we’ll be going a bit ‘deeper’, we’ll keep the intention to have an enjoyable evening, with good humour and fun. Places are limited to 15-20 people and tickets are £5. Please update your RSVP if you can no longer attend so that someone else can have your place. **Who should come:** Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in Philosophy, it is about *doing* philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality... etc. etc.... **Where we'll meet:** The Fitzroy Tavern in Fitzrovia. The nearest Tube stations are Goodge Street and Tottenham Court Road.
