Sports events in London this week
Things to do rather than things to watch, mostly: skating, swimming outdoors all year, bowling, darts and the walks long enough to count. The spectator fixtures that are free from the pavement, the marathon and the Boat Race among them, are here too.
What to expect
23 listings filed under Sport. The busiest rooms are Alexandra Palace, Electric Ballroom and Hyde Park. Concentrated in Shoreditch, Mayfair and Alexandra Palace.

Showing this weekend, in Shoreditch. Clear
Saturday
24 October-
Food and drink From £12
Darts at Flight Club, Shoreditch
Darts with the scoring done for you and a camera on the board, booked by the oche rather than the person. Cheaper before six and on a weekday, and it does run late.
-
Food and drink From £10
Ping pong at Bounce, Old Street
Tables by the hour in a basement that used to be a ping pong hall, which is a rare thing to be able to say. Loud after nine and quiet before seven.
-
Food and drink From £11
Bowling at All Star Lanes, Brick Lane
Four lanes in a basement done out as an American diner, which sounds worse than it is. Booked by the lane for up to eight, and the kitchen runs as late as the bowling.
