You Don't Have To Be Good.
You Just Have To Show Up.
Bringing people together through free community games, with room to grow into something bigger.
Every Saturday. Just Show Up.
- Sorauren Park, Parkdale
- 12 to 2 pm
- Pickleball + volleyball
- Free
- Adults 18+
No sign-up. No gear needed. We bring the nets, paddles and balls.
Saturdays run from May until it gets too cold, usually late November. Then we're back in May.
See who's coming this week.
In the WhatsApp chat, other members can see your phone number. Everyone plays by our Community Guidelines.
Play Near You.
Not in Parkdale? Join a local group and find people to play with. These are groups, not GANP-run games. Same 18+ rules.
What Are GANP Games?
IT ONLY TAKES ONE PERSON TO GET THE GAME GOING.
It started with one volleyball net and an unused space at Sorauren Park.
Mark brought out the net, people started playing, and word spread. A GANP Facebook group brought even more neighbours together. What began with volleyball grew to include pickleball and eventually a year-round pickleball league.
That's the idea behind GANP Games. We help people turn underused neighbourhood spaces into places to play by bringing sports equipment and helping organize free GANP Saturdays.
As more people join, those casual games can grow into regular meetups and leagues, shaped by the people who play.
For your community, by your community.
It all started in Parkdale
At Sorauren Park in Toronto, GANP Saturdays bring neighbours together for free games of pickleball, volleyball, spikeball and more.
