Hi, a friend and I are looking at attending a club in the Midlands, I'm in Lancashire she's from London. So we thought midlands would be a good place to meet up one night, as it's central. We are ideally looking for a club that has more couples rather than single guys, although we both play we don't play with eachother. And advice would be appreciated |

Couples and single ladies events tend not to be midweek. I can't think of any in the Midlands. To be fair a club even open midweek is difficult. I can think of a few venues in the Midlands that are open at least some midweek days but not specifically for what you seek.
However a word of warning regarding couples nights, specifically for yourself. You and your freind don't play together, so you're both there to chase your own experiences (for whatever reasons). However obviously to enter on such a night you'd be going in on the basis of being a couple. Now from a technical veiw point you could pull that off. The problem is (and we've seen this a few times on couples nights) that the couples and single ladies may veiw this as disingenuous and not like it. The problem really will start when you seperate to do your respective things. At that point she'll be most likely veiwed as a single lady and very well received and you'll be viewed as a single bloke who's used deception to get in. At the end of the day couples and ladies go to that specific event to avoid single men. So it may not turn out the eutopia that you think it will. Even seen in the past guys who've used an esc0rt to get into such nights. They get found out and it doesn't go so well. So it's up to you and your friend if you still want a couples night if you don't play together. However my personal advice would be don't.

I can think of some options for you even if they're not your gold plate solution.
However it really depends on what membership option suit you both as to where I recommend. We don't know your dynamic. Is this a first meet/one off? Are you intending to meet at clubs exclusively together? Or do either/both of you also want the flexibility to attend the club alone or with other people?
The reason I ask because there's a few clubs that spring to mind but my recommendation is different depending what membership you'd need. Keep in mind that at many clubs to gain entry and keep a couples membership you always have to arrive together and leave together. A couples membership is not a back door to an easy and often cheaper singles membership. Remember a lot of clubs are hot on this rule.
Or there is the Attic in Derby that is no membership, just pay entry on door. (Check their website for midweek opening). |
