Anyone play basketball on a recreational level around the city? Just looking for pick-up games maybe once a week. Hoping to start playing ball again and to get back in shape.

Talisman Center on weekends
Indeed. Though I haven't made a weekend visit in awhile, but I remember that it used to always get busy this time of year with high school basketball starting up and everything.Originally posted by buh_buh

not just weekends but it's probably better odds of meeting enough people. four of my friends play on weekdays and they always find enough for 5 on 5.Originally posted by buh_buh

yeah talisman is usually a good place for pickup, altho sometimes the compition isn't that good.. sometimes it was full of highschool kids playing ball, but they can either be decent at bball or really suck ass.. and playing with people who don't know how to play bball sucks...
Weeknights are tough though because they usually have men's league games taking up at least 3 of the 5 courts with kids gymnastics and badminton in the other two.Originally posted by yue

Life is a Gamble.
Ya, I would avoid Talisman Wednesday nights for sure. I play men's league and they take up pretty much every court Wednesdays.Originally posted by sexualbanana

Check out playing rec league with Calgary Sport and Social Club.
Prices are decent, games are once a week.
I've never seen anyone else playing at the Golds in Northgate, I'll go in there every now and then.
I'm interested. I was gonna bump the 5, now almost 6 year old, old U of C basketball thread. Maybe I'll do that now...

Yea, maybe we can arrange a once a week thing with Beyond members or something??
So it's generally empty eh? Good spot to go and shoot around atleast I guess. I go to Golds Northland, but I'd take a shot over for some hoops.Originally posted by Davetronz

Bring your own ball, the two they have there are odd-shaped, flat and have no grip on them anymore.
