how it works
SKILL LEVEL
Most players are intermediate — meaning you’ve played pickup before, understand spacing, movement, and team play, and can hold your own in a fast-paced game.
It’s a fun, competitive community where we run hard and play smart. You don’t need to be a star—but this isn’t a beginner-level run either. If you love the game and can keep up, you’ll fit right in.
format
We play full-court, coed, 5v5 pickup basketball. We pull cards at game time to make teams— your suit is your squad. This keeps it random, quick, and fair so we don’t waste time picking teams— just pull and play.
Games are to 11 (1s and 2s, straight up)
The losing team shoots to stay on and fill the next available spots. Subs help run the scoreboard while they’re out. Sometimes we’ll cap the games at 11 minutes to keep pace and keep legs fresh.
Final game of the day goes to 15, win by 2
We keep the rotation moving—based on turnout, if you sit out, it’s usually just for one game. The vibe is fast, fun, and focused on keeping everyone playing.
signING up
Upcoming games are listed on our schedule page. Once we fill up and reach 15 players, sign-up to be added to the waitlist. Depending on game location, if 7 or more join the waitlist, we’ll open a second court and move those players to the game day roster. Spots go fast—sign up early!
On Game Day
Arrive 10–15 minutes early to stretch and warm up. I’m usually there ~20 minutes ahead to set up and shoot—come early if you want extra shots.
Bring indoor shoes, water, and a white/dark shirt (or reversible jersey) to keep lineups clear. FCC Hoops reversible jerseys are $15.
Teams are drawn at game time using cards (your suit = your squad). Late arrivals throw off balance, so thanks for being on time and helping us start strong!
