​​​How we play

• ​​​We play for exercise and networking - NOT to win and compete 

• ​​​We play safely and do not put ourselves or others at risk of injury 

• ​​​We play fairly and inclusive, passing and sharing the ball 

• ​​​We play at what I like to call 70% speed basketball → you are trying but not trying too hard that you might over-exert or injure yourself/others 

• ​​​Absolutely no hard fouls or bad attitude - zero tolerance and any instances will result in immediate removal
