Basketball Open Gym

All are welcome!  Unfortunately, we can only accomodate up to 15 people per night, so please RSVP to hold your spot. Otherwise, first-come, first-serve. 

We don't keep score and our goal is work on our game and build community. We’re here to have fun and create a space that is as much about socializing as it is about basketball! Reach out if you have any questions: bkpridecenterbball@gmail.com
