What are some new hobbies other than sports that are club activities?

I want to make some new friends in my locality, but a lot of the clubs and groups are sports ones, and I absolutely detest sport and am useless at it? Can I please have some suggestions for other group hobbies?

Horticulture clubs (FFA)
croqet board games, tag or search google for some fun group games
check your local library for a book club or a writers group
Chess, bridge, or other card games are great ways to meet people, and board games work as well. Lots of people play, and would like a place to go.
Charitable groups also work. You can knit for charity, organize fund raisers, raise awareness for something you care about, and meet other people who feel the same way. My niece met most of her best friends in high school that way.
You could always come **** my ****……):-)
Check out a fly fishing club. Learning to tye flies is relaxing, allows you to be creative in the flies you tye and meet people that appreciate nature.
Check your community for craft groups. Like me, I attend a weekly sewing group where we do our respective needlepoint crafts such as knitting, cross stitching, crocheting, hardanger, etc. You will find that joining such groups/clubs is fun and productive. Your community might have a scrapbooking group/club as well. If you think you are (or want to try being) creative, these are great choices. Goodluck!
Though not a hobby to just jump into, you could get into collecting coins, medals or tokens. There are a lot of coin clubs around as well as national groups for all aspects of numismatics.
