Full Description
Looking for a unique and healthy way to spend an afternoon or evening during your trip to Japan? Join us for casual and friendly volleyball sessions held regularly in Osaka and Kyoto. Whether you come alone or with friends, you’ll be welcomed into a diverse and supportive group of locals and international players.
Each session lasts 2–3 hours, with games designed for fun and inclusion rather than intense competition. Don’t worry if you’re new to the game—there are always experienced players and friendly organizers on hand to show you the ropes or offer tips to improve your game.
All skill levels are welcome, from complete beginners to advanced players. We provide all necessary equipment, including volleyballs and nets, though you’re welcome to bring your own gear. Please wear comfortable clothes and bring clean indoor shoes (must not be used outdoors).
Facilities include locker rooms, showers, and water fountains (shower use is free in Osaka and available for a small fee in Kyoto). In some sessions, you can also opt for training classes led by certified coaches. These sessions include outdoor physical training and indoor court skill development—perfect for those looking to take their volleyball skills to the next level.
After playing, you’re welcome to join fellow participants for optional social gatherings, including meals or drinks nearby—an excellent way to connect beyond the court.

Reviews
“A mixed international team where everyone’s welcome regardless of skill. There’s music playing, a fun and relaxed vibe, and even dinner together after. Highly recommended!”
“Despite some confusion at first, I ended up having a great time. We played short matches for nearly 3 hours. It was well-organized and easy to join as a solo traveler.”
