Who all are members? Turning 30 next year and likely going to join. How are the sports in terms of competitiveness, fun, etc. - mainly flag football and basketball.


TIA.

It used to be well run organization with 4-500 members and 3-4 sports. I don't know it's still legit these days. I enjoyed it for 6/7 years way back.

I've been meaning to look into it. Been playing flag football in a BREC league and lately in a pickup game with some of my wife's coworkers. They're in their mid 20s and I can hang but my body can't, about to be 32 next month.

Is their flag football league in the fall?

I think they just get together once a year and march in the St. Patrick's Day Parade.

I'm in it and enjoy the club. It's a lot more than a sports club, bunch of social events as well. Yes BRAAS plays flag football in the fall. The club only lets in a rookie class once a year in August. Need sponsorship of a current member.

Won't they eventually all die since they don't let young ones in?

I did it for few years recently. The sports are competitive and fun. You choose from flag football, golf, basketball, beach volleyball and softball. Really a great group and every one is really friendly. There's also a lot of social stuff like tailgates, an annual party at a members house on diversion canal, an annual formal, golf trips, fishing tournament, Christmas parties, St Patty's float and party, etc. Flag football is always Monday night and then you can go to Happys and watch MNF with a drink special for members. Every Friday a big group gets together for lunch somewhere around town.

I used to call games for them. These are the most competitive old fricks in Baton Rouge. Usually all professionals (doctors, lawyers, etc). They play flag football, volleyball, softball and basketball

My neighbor does this and has asked if I want to join... so far I haven't. He says it's a lot of fun though.

It's a rather pretensious "look at me" crowd. No thanks.

I've debated joining. I have the sponsorship already but from what he told me is that rookies have to play every sport the first year.

I really have no interest in playing sports year round. I suck in hoops but am good in the rest. That's the thing that is keeping me out.
