To do so, you can join a City Wide Sports League for "a variety of mixed and women's leagues for ages 18 and up" from beach volleyball to pickleball, the city says in a news release on its website.

“Rally your friends to create your own team or join individually and be matched with an existing team,” reads the release.

Here’s a list of the leagues:

Basketball leagues

The women’s basketball league runs from Wednesday, April 17 to Wednesday, May 22 at the Ottawa Technical Secondary School.

Beach volleyball leagues
