English term or phrase: boys club
The boys club is meeting this weekend -- without giving me the opportunity to join.

Je cherche une expression courte car c'est pour une vidéo.
Il s'agit d'un cercle fermé réservé aux hommes dans un milieu de travail.

Et pourquoi pas garder "le Boys'Club"...Tout le monde comprendra!
