I was just wondering, with the summer almost upon us, and i'm going to assume a bunch of us around boston, If there was any interest in mabey getting together to play some ball at some point this summer. I think it would be fun, if we could find an open court on a sunday or something and play some games.

Just checking if there's any interest.  :)

I'd be all over that, but living in NC it would probably be a little to far for me to drive  :(

When I'm in the gym...I like to grunt when  I get my swell on... That way everyone can see how jacked and tan I am.

haden't even thought that far ahead yet, im not in a regular game right now (just moved), Just seeing if there's some intrest.

Hopefully someone who plays ina regular game will know of a court, so far seems like we could get some players  :D

I would be intersted in playing some pick up games.


I know of a place on washington street(and Lenox st) that has 3 courts in a row that are never really being used. Its called Ramsey Park.

Also there are a few courts off of treemont behind the police station, but they aren't in the best condition.

I am interested, I currently play at the longfellow club in Natick, i live in Somerville, tufts has some nice outside courts that get average action / players, and there are a few good, unused courts around in Somerville, but i can travel to a game also, i am interested in RI games as I will be down the a lot in the summer! I play forward, Leon Powe type, but unless i lose a few lbs, maybe Glen Davis! Whoo-aaahh! (gotta stop consuming before my sneakers get too far away to tie!)

The North end place is good, but like the backBay, no where to park the car!!!

nice, i work in quincy, live in roslindale.

I'm down for traveling anywhere aroudn the area, i say lets see who else jumps on board and then mabey try pinning down courts for a few weeks from now.

If this works out, might be a thing we can do semi weekly or something.

This might turn into one of the best idea's ive had at 6 in the morning before work lol.  ;D

Washington and Lenox sounds good to me.  Never been to those courts, but I live in Roxbury Crossing nearby.  Sunday anyone?  Maybe noon?  I'm down for any other suggestions,  the important thing is most of us agree on a time and place
