I personally like the monthly tournaments and the seasonal leagues. TennisDC does an excellent job of keeping the entry fees low and reasonably priced, while still providing great prizes from a sponsor (Tennis Warehouse gift certificates!). I like that TennisDC's website will keep track of your stats like your Win-Loss record (by year and in total), % of games won, and other fun tidbits of info. The people I've played have mostly been friendly and easy to work with on playing times/locations. Every now and then, there will a guy who throws a tantrum on the court. It's annoying, and I just try to avoid playing these people in the future. This seems to happen in every sport men play competitively, and I've seen it less in this league than other ones in DC, but such is life.

Great experience with TennisDC! It helps you to play with people at your level and area in DC…read more Totally recommended!

I have been playing NAKID for three seasons now, and it is a lot of fun. I read through some of…read morethe reviews and have to say I am surprised there are those who weren't happy. First, it's an ADULT KICKBALL league that focuses more on the social aspects than the actual sport. Sure, most of the players are in their mid to late 20's but there are older players as well (like me). I am in the military as well and Dan has been nothing but wonderful when it came to dealing with military issues. Hell, he donated kickball gear that we are sending downrange for the troops to play to have a little fun. How awesome is that?!? You can't go wrong with this group. It is a ton of fun and the people are all great. The parties are a blast and it's a really fun way to meet new people in a neutral environment. I have yet to meet someone I did not like. Give it a try...after all, you're never lonely when you're NAKID! ;-)

I'm pretty sure this organization is a scam…read more... My friends and I signed up for the Thursday night winter dodgeball league and, less than a week before the first game, we received an email notifying us that the day of games was changed to Wednesday and the location had changed as well... Well, it turns out most folks on the original team couldn't make Wednesdays (because we're adults who planned to join a Thursday league and not a Wednesday league), so we tried to get in touch with them on a multitude of platforms to request refunds. This is how that went: - 5 of us sent multiple emails to their listed email addresses (info@playnakid.com and dc@playnakid.com) requesting refunds and all of our emails have gone unanswered; - we called the number listed on their website/facebook page/yelp page (855-466-2543) but the number has been disconnected; - I have reached out via the Feedback option on their website, which has been unanswered; - I TWEETED at them...but they haven't posted a new tweet since 2015...and... -I wrote this yelp review - which I don't think will do much good, but I'm frustrated and needed a platform in which to tell the Yelp World about how unorganized, unprofessional and overall shady this organization is. My recommendation: choose another league to throw balls at people's faces!! AND NAKID - GIVE US OUR REFUNDS, DAMMIT.

Paid $900 for an opportunity to play summer ball. After only three games -- and not playing a full…read moredefensive inning in any one of the games -- the coach benched my player. When asked about a partial refund, the owner said no and shared this policy: Bradley Baseball Academia does not issue refunds on our Teams, Bus Tours, Scout Days, Lesson Packages, Camps, or Rentals. All sales are considered final once the first activity (Individual Lesson, Team Practice, etc.) has taken place. Other baseball academies around town do not operate this way; they do not even have a refund policy. That BBA even has a refund policy indicates this is a practice for this business.

Im so excited to have this ice rink back! This is my first time doing a DPR activity so I made the…read moremistake of thinking I could just walk in and buy a ticket! The ticketing system IS CONFUSING AND NOT designed well at all. There is no phone number, so hopefully you can read and use the internet. You need to register for a DPR account, and upload proof of residency if you reside in DC and want the resident pricing. The people who verify your residency are working weekdays. The site states it may take 7-10 days to be approved. Everyone who creates an account will automatically be a non-resident until they're approved. If you're planning to participate, CREATE YOUR ACCOUNT WEEKS BEFOREHAND. Other than that, it's pretty simple. The staff scans your ticket upstairs, you get your rental skates and go on the ice! I was not informed that figure skates existed. That would've been helpful since the hockey skates were a bit uncomfortable for me. I'm glad they have options though.

Fort Dupont Ice Arena is Washington's best kept secret. It's the only indoor ice skating rink in…read morethe city of Washington, D.C. It's not Metro accessible, explaining why many people don't know about it, but there is a large free parking lot next door as well as a Capital Bikeshare dock. The space itself is clearly built in a different era, but they have maintained it well for not having a lot of funding. A non-profit runs the arena and it is mainly used for non-profit programming for youth who ice skate. However, they keep the ice rink open every day from 9am-4pm and rentals are affordable ($5 for adults and $4 for seniors and youth). If you're looking for a fun, family activity in DC, check the Ice Arena out. It's such a fun thing to do!

The JFK Hockey Fields are great mixed-use field for team sports, exercise, or casual use. I like to…read moreplay and relax here with the family. The fields are located between the Reflecting Pool to the west, WWII Memorial to the north, and Korean War Veterans Memorial and U.S. Park Police Horse Stables to the east. You have to reserve the field online for team sports or group use. 1-hour time slots are available to schedule every day of the week from 7am-8:30pm during the season (April 1st - October 31st). During the season, I recommend arriving outside of the reservation hours, especially during spring and summer, as people tend to be territorial and vocal about asking others to leave the field during their reservation time, which is understood. Please be mindful and respect others reservations. Outside of the reservation season, feel free to use the field anytime. There are restrooms at the end of the fields near the WWII Memorial. A great place to enjoy outdoor green space.

8/12/21 After visiting the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial,…read more I started heading back to The Washington Monument on a warm Saturday morning on August 7th.  I started hearing a lot of noises and saw something going on just past the The District Of Columbia War Memorial. I checked out the The District Of Columbia War Memorial before heading to JFK Fields.  I have been to these fields before as a kid.  However, these fields were empty. I also had no knowledge of the DC streets. Nevertheless,  on this particular day,  the fields were full of life.  Girls and boys were playing American Football.  On some fields girls were practicing soccer.     I passed by a young boys football team who were wearing black and purple.   My kind of colors.  Some of them seemed to like my black and purple baseball jersey. Yes, I bought a lovely baseball jersey with the Baltimore Ravens.     You can buy baseball jerseys with your favorite teams  one them for $49.00 each. https://www.sport9design.com/products/baltimore-ravens-personalized-baseball-jersey-shirt-39?variant=1000004407975576&gclid=CjwKCAjwjdOIBhA_EiwAHz8xm-UX9BG3DtvOEGHFM9WTshC3vai3Z-i-BzDR2a0f7gemVw0EVcAq0xoCJn0QAvD_BwE  Anyhow, from some of the games I watched, it were entertaining from what I saw.  Kids smiling, laughing and having a good time.  Perhaps some of these kids I saw will be the next Lamar Demeatrice Jackson Jr.,  Anquan Kenmile Boldin Sr., Justin Paul Tucker, Peyton Williams Manning, Sarah Fuller Sarah Thomas, Patricia Palinkas, Katie Sowers, Lori Locust, Jennifer King or Kathryn Smith. Only time will tell if this actually happens to these kids.   There are two public bathrooms by this field, but the circular one was the busiest.  In my honest opinion the farther bathroom  had a better feel and look. It was clean without the heavy stink of...human gas.  I saw that the bathrooms are watched by staff and regularly check the facilities during the sports activities.  Nevertheless,  it started to rain, but this did not stop the kids from playing or the proud moms and dads from cheering for their kid(s) to succeed.   Finding out what all the hubbub was about was worth visiting JFK Fields.

This location is in need of renovation. The locker rooms are dated and overdue for an update. While…read morethe facilities themselves are functional and adequately serve their purpose, they fall short given the high monthly cost. Most of the trainers are excellent--Mike and Emma, in particular, stand out as favorites. However, a few staff members can be rude and unaccommodating. The café/restaurant is acceptable but offers only mediocre food. Overall, I continue to go primarily for the convenience, not because it is an exceptional facility.

Great music to keep the workout vibe going. My trainer, Jacob Williams, taught me a few new great stretches, improved my form on things I always do, and gave me a great workout (especially the abs!). I wish I had brought a swimsuit to use the pool. I highly recommend this gym and Jacob.
