Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
when you say "social"... do you mean "a good way to meet chicks", or "a good way to widen your circle of friends" ?
if its a) mixed touch footy or mixed netball. sweat + inadvertent body contact + team sports = opportunity.
if its b) basketball, touch footy, bowling (not really a sport, but a good social ice breaker).
the good thing with social level is that you dont have to be good at it. just keen to give it a go.
You could try rowing mate,
It is expensive, but when I was rowing it was #### loads of fun,
You'll get way fitter aswell especially if rowing in regatta's.
Only way anything is gonna go near your head is if you crab your oar really badly and it hits you in the face (this will only happen if you row sweep oar), or if someone in the group isn't pulling their weight
