Basketball City

Was here for the NACIVTs (9 man Volleyball). Great facility. With the number of people we had, the cleaning staff did a fantastic job keeping the place clean, especially in the washrooms.
Thanks for hosting nearly 1500 of us.

Not the best environment for kids to go to. Coaches are way too harsh and yell way too much.

Attended Choice Eats here. Good venue for it.

Great place to play basketball. Around 8 full courts. Prices are a little expensive and it is difficult to get to.

My 9 yo daughter did the basketball camp. She came home one day and told me one of the coaches threw a ball at her because she wasn’t running fast enough. Hit her right in the back. She said the same coach made fun of the way some kids ran and kept calling one little boy «midget man» I don’t think we will be going back

I have been her for two events so far. Heineken Viewing Party and just yesterday the Electrolytenment event. Its a great big space and there is an outside area which gives you a beautiful view of the city. Especially at night. And of course plenty of photos ladies. lol

I worked here for an event for some MAJOR folks. Just to give you an idea of what kind of folks I’m talking about, the kind that can probably buy your soul.
Yeah those folks…
Okay maybe not BUY your soul but they sure have a lot of moola. lol
Better?
The space was rented out for an auction that night and damn this place is huge. Seriously, at one point I kind of forgot where things were and had to ask someone who was working that particular area for help that night. Yikes!
The hoops can be lifted/​retracted and in some cases taken off the hinges completely? I did not know that as there were only a few that still hung above us. The rest must have been taken off to make the space even more presentable.
It was a stunning space at night and I am sure it would have been EVEN STUNNINGLY so in the daylight IF you find a bunch of guys sweating playing basketball.
Albeit, not my type of coffee.
Had I known about this place in my earlier days of playing bball (think a shorter more athletic version of Kyle Korver) I would have really LOVED this place.
Ahhh to reminisce.

For big events this is a great spot. It is new facilities and loved the big space and how it can how multiple purposes. What I did not like was how nasty the bathrooms were when I was there. I was there at the Craft Beer Festival and on some of the doors (which were white) it looked like they used brown water to wipe the white doors down. It looked really bad. If it had appeared more clean to me I would have been a bigger fan. I know that Sandy is part of the effort and time that needs to be put in to clean it, but the bathrooms I were in were on the 2. floor, so they should have been clean.
Like the conversion of this area to something new and more modern.
It is a bit out of the way but if the event is interesting enough I would come again and hopefully next time the bathrooms will be cleaner.

I’ve come here for really huge, fun events such as the Bike Expo and Craft Beer Festival. The only downside was that it was FREEZING due to the aftermath of Sandy, but I’m sure that’ll be fixed soon.
The bathrooms are really clean which is a major plus! The only con is that it’s quite a walk from the subway station, and difficult to catch a cab in this area.

Nice and new facility.
I only come here to watch the boyfriend play, so I’m not sure if you can come and just play, but it’s pretty nice and still super clean.

This was for the basketball camp
