EVENT DETAILS
Join us every Sunday at Memorial Hall from 6:30–8 pm for high-energy pick-up basketball.

PRICING & REGISTRATION
• Solo/Group Option: Come solo or with friends for $5 per player (16+), and we’ll form teams on the fly.
• Squad Option: Bring a squad of up to 12 players for $35 (pay by 6:30 pm to lock in your spot).
We cap at 6 teams, each playing every other team in 12-minute games across 2 courts —giving you up to 5 games a night.

HOW TO REGISTER
• Singles/Groups: Arrive early to secure your spot. Late arrivals may miss out.
• Squad: Register via text at 020 444 0210 if you’re bringing a squad.

PAYMENT DETAILS
Payment is due before you step on the court — no exceptions. Bring cash or proof of transfer to: 06-0889-0471818-00 (ANZ – T Proot)

HOUSE RULES & EXPECTATIONS
1. Physical Play & Sportsmanship
• We allow more contact than typical leagues, but no blatant fouls (charging, pushing, slapping) or unsportsmanlike behavior.
• We use a two-strike policy—on your third offense, you’re out of the league.
2. Call Your Own Fouls & Scoring
• Shooting fouls = automatic points (no free throws).
• Non-shooting fouls = +1 and a turnover if needed. Keep it fair and keep it flowing.
3. Continuous Clock
• We keep stoppages to a minimum. Make subs swiftly, with a quick courtside hand check.
4. 3-Second Rule
• Offensively “parking” in the paint is a turnover—stay on the move.
5. One Jump Ball (At Tip-Off)
• After the initial jump ball, the non-starting team begins the next period.
• If two players wrestle for the ball, let go within a second and return it to whoever had possession.

READY TO PLAY?
Grab your gear, show up on time, and get ready for fast-paced, competitive hoops.
See you on the court!
