Social Boston Sports® (SBS) was created in January 2007 by four young professionals, Justin Obey, Brian Shaw, John Sharry, and Frank Knippenberg. The organization was created for other young professionals who are active, fun-loving and are always up for a great time. Simply put, SBS is rapidly growing community of SBS-ers who love to have fun and live life to the fullest!

SBS provides SBS-ers with an organized way to get involved in events, parties, and coed recreational sports leagues and activities throughout Boston. Our Mission: To provide young professionals with the opportunity to live life to the fullest by staying active through sports leagues, social events, and weekend adventure trips, friendly atmospheres, and opportunity to hang out with/meet new friends and old, all while having as much fun as possible. We will do this while maintaining valuable, fresh, memorable, and excellent customer experiences while constantly improving our products and services.

Meet the Team!

Justin Obey -- Co-Founder and CEO

A Boston native, Justin graduated from Bentley University with a degree in Economics and Finance. After spending 6 months in Vienna studying German and Economics and going on weekend trips to the Alps, Paris, Oktoberfest, Budapest, Prague, with the Wirtschaftsuniversitat's Buddy Network he came back to the States. Working for Red Bull, North America; serving as a Resident Assistant; and organizing pub crawls for his senior class inspired him to create an organization for people living in Boston to come together through athletic activities, social nights, weekend trips and everything in between; thus: Social Boston Sports®. In his spare time, Justin loves to ski, mountain bike, play lacrosse, swim, go sailing, kayaking, and generally be active.
