NEW Walking Basketball Provides New Spin on Pickup Games

Do you still enjoy a good pickup basketball game, but may not have the hops left in your knees to get up? Check out our NEW and FREE Walking Basketball program, where all players must keep one heel on the floor at all times and will be shooting on 8-feet-tall baskets.

Recommended for ages 40 and older, but open to all, this self-officiated drop-in basketball program will run 9-11 a.m. Wednesdays in Main Gym 1 starting Jan. 11 at the Kirksey Recreation Center. Check out the flyer for more details. Although the program is free, a membership or day pass is required to enter the facility.
