THE COACHING

Lane Coach-led Instruction

Each group gets dedicated instruction from a Lane Coach—15 minutes of fundamentals and safety to get everyone throwing with confidence before games begin.

THE GAMES

An Hour of Games or Competition

After instruction the session opens into a full hour of games or head-to-head competition—it's structured enough for safety but flexible so groups can choose their pace and format.

FOOD & DRINK

Bring Your Own Food; Beer and Wine Available

Food may be brought in by participants, and beer and wine are available at the bar—note that BYOB is no longer permitted and house policies govern on-site service.

What the day feels like

What the Hour Feels Like

The rhythm is brisk: brief, hands-on coaching to build safe technique, then an hour that feels equal parts social hour and low-stakes rivalry. Groups move from guided practice into rounds of games or informal competition, choosing how aggressive or casual to be once the coaching segment ends.
