ACAVE is a safe, cozy, and inclusive space for women to come together, feel comfortable, and enjoy sports without judgement.
Our Slogan: Bringing women together through sports and adventures.
Four of us started this group to find like-minded people to play team sports with. Our first event was Netball, in October 2018.
