local sports activities

Hello! My boyfriend and I are relatively new to the area. 30a offers a lot of arts, which is great for me, but my boyfriend would like an athletic outlet. Does anyone get together in the sowal area to play sports? He plays football, basketball, and tennis. Hopefully we can get a group together and make some new friends! Thanks!

For football, I think you're goingto have to go to FWB to find a semi-pro team. Some info on options here:

Tennis, I know there are public courts at the Freeport regional park, and league play out of Sandestin resort.

For something different (though again a bit of a drive) there's rugby in FWB:

Many people in South Walton stick to the individual activities, like jogging, hiking, biking, kayaking, YOLO boarding, etc. Can be lots of fun and great exercise.

I know some guys have been playing pick up basketball at Pt. Washington UMC. They seem pretty intense players and really nice guys from the area.

That sounds cool! How would he meet up with those guys at the UMC?
