I already play with some of my coworkers but it wasn't as often as I'd like. I'd like to get something regular going. So first, if you'd like to join me, let me know. You don't have to be very good, I'm a very outta shape guy and this is just for fun. :) We would need a place to play. The place I currently play in is a gated apartment complex that a friend lives in. Great place, but if my friend isn't around I can't get in. Preferably somewhere somewhere that stays open late and maybe indoor so we could play regardless of the weather. I hear that people can pay to play in the Shenzhen Gymnasium. Let me know if anyone knows about this and would like to join. Would like to make this every Saturday or Sunday. Near Window of the World or really anywhere along the subway line or closely walkable from it would be more convenient for me. Don't post your e-mail address here, that isn't safe, just let me know your interested or have some info and I'll post any updates here. We can exchange e-mails and info at the first game.
EDIT:
I have set up an e-mail address for basketball, so please post that you are interested here and then e-mail me at SZweekendBasketball@live.com. You can also add this e-mail to MSN messenger AKA Windows Live Messenger. Post here so people see there is interest. ;) Even if only a few are here, the courts we will play at already have many local players, so there will always be enough people. Talk to you all soon.

I started last weekend, but
I started last weekend, but have yet to receive any interest. I WILL be going EVERY week, so just post in here and I will check on thursday. We would be playing near Sam's Club. Hope to ear from you. The weather is so nice recently, instead of just sitting home waiting to go to some club, get out and get some healthy in ya:)
i want to come play too!!
i want to come play too!! but im not in shenzhen right now. but ill be bak soon. is it goin to be all guys?
HI,boys, nice to see this
HI,boys, nice to see this message here, i really like join this event, and i live in baishizhou, i know one basketball place at OCT, i can take you to the place over this weekend if you interesting.
Well, I wouldn't call this
Well, I wouldn't call this an event really;) Especially since only two people have shown interest and one of them is not even in Shenzhen:D Sure Ken. We can try that this time. I usually go a little far to the Sam's club area because the court there is really nice. How about we meet at Window of the World in the subway around 2pm Saturday? I believe it will be all boys playing, but girls are welcome to come and have their own game going at the same time. I'd just be worried about the guys being too rough. I know just last weekend someone poked me in the eye pretty bad, and every game I get and give many a foul(usually unintentionally;) We can try it out, it's not like I'm the King or anything.:)
ok, great. let's meet by
ok, great. let's meet by 14:00, at the pyramid exit of windows of the world station. will have 3 friends come with me

ok, see you then, I'll be the overweight white guy in a Yankees hat.
Well that was lots of fun, I
Well that was lots of fun, I hope more will join. Good opportunity to meet new people in Shenzhen and have a little fun and exercise:) That park in OCT is really a beautiful place. Maybe next week, I'll bring my coworkers or we can go play at the court we usually go to by Sam's club. Found out I can get in there no problem.
Hi I am a coach of the Hong
Hi I am a coach of the Hong kong mens National National Team and would like to play however, im not a young man but have played a lot of ball. if interested please let me know..further I would require directions as I am quite new to shenzhen..Coach Mac.
Hey Mac, sure come on out.
Hey Mac, sure come on out. Be good to have someone around who really knows how to play. Meaning, I can play, but not really well. Some advice from someone who knows a bit more would be nice. So this Saturday, we can go around 2. I'm gonna ask my coworkers where they wanna play and then I can let you know how to get there. I've set up an e-mail address just for this basketball thing.
SZweekendbasketball@live.com
Send me your e-mail address there and I can keep u informed as well as send you and anyone directions or at least a place to meet so that I can bring you to the courts. Hopefully more expats will come out to play. :) I will continue to post things here as well.
Hi, i'll be interested to
Hi,
i'll be interested to play to!
I'll send a message on the email you created ;-) and probably join on saturday.
See you, Jon
Then I'll be waiting for
Then I'll be waiting for your e-mail, cya on Sat: )
This Saturday, if anyone is
This Saturday, if anyone is interested in coming, I will be waiting at the Hua Qiao Cheng subway @ 1:30 for anyone who would like to join us. We will leave there at 1:45 sharp and go to the courts which are very close to there. It's directly behind the Walmart. If you still want to come and we have already left, just walk to Walmart. If you are facing the entrance walk to the right of the entrance and you can walk down this small corridor of stores(few clothing stores and a small bakery on the right). Keep going and you'll come to a main street. Cross it and you'll see a park with a big fountain in it. walk to the right of the fountain till you find a boardwalk and continue in the same direction you've been going till you'll see basketball courts on your right. It shouldn't be hard to spot me, I'm a fat guy and I'll probably be wearing a Yankees hat:)
Just to let anyone know,
Just to let anyone know, We've been playing every weekend and all are still welcome, just add my MSN name posted above or send me an e-mail;) we will be playing regardless of the weather, but if it rains it might cost a little money to use an indoor basketball court we know. Hope to see you out there;)

Hey guys, I hope you are all
Hey guys, I hope you are all up for basketball this weekend. My coworker friend is coming and he usually brings a few people from his department, so I hope we have a nice turnout. I'd like to go to the indoor basketball court in Che Gong Miao. I will ask Brian to reserve the court for 3-6pm. It is a pay court, but is pretty cheap, only 75yuan per hour if memory serves. Sunday if the weather is good, we can play outside either at Xiang Ge Li Yuan(free) or Go to a pay one like the one at the Shenzhen Gym or any one that we wanna try out. I'd like to discuss that a little tomorrow. If you are all up for it, I'd like us to have dinner either today or Sunday after we play. We can decide then where to go.First we can all go home to shower, then meet somewhere and go dutch on the bill. Please let me know if you can make it to the game and possible dinner.
