Stay & Play Social Club was created in an effort to keep the teams playing after Sport & Social Club of the US, which Steve Sack was a huge part of during their successful years, unfortunately closed in January 2001. We have successfully placed teams, small groups and individuals four seasons a year, for 20 years since, building connections for businesses, friendships and relationships – some relationships have led to creating families. Our goal is to keep those 21 and older playing! Our coed, women’s and men’s leagues throughout the tri-county area offer adults an opportunity to stay and play.

The league details and registration links are on the website, the League Info page, www.SPSCdetroit.com/league_info/ We have coed, women’s and men’s basketball, coed and women’s volleyball, dodgeball, bowling and euchre available in the winter season.

We also play kickball, softball, soccer, flag football and sand volleyball in the spring, summer and fall seasons.  Text the SPSC office, 248 733 9999 with any questions!

Two local model airplane clubs, the Detroit Balsa Bugs and the Cloudbusters Model Airplane Cub, invite anyone interested to join us at the United Wholesale Mortgage Sports Complex and see what family fun Indoor Model Aviation has to offer. Our efforts are to teach and train participants all about flying very light duration indoor models. We will also be involved in building and flying sessions as a means of attracting the curious, model building and flying members of our community. The flying site we use (Field 1) is one of the best indoor model flying sites in the Midwest! Our two clubs offer more than a century of model flying education, construction and flying expertise. Several of our current members have represented the United States in overseas World Championship competitions. For those of you interested in something a little different, challenging and rewarding, come on by on Thursdays, between, 9:45 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. You’ll be our welcomed guests!
