A friend took me there to watch his kid play basketball with other kids on a team. They have two referees per game going on and each team had his own coach. It was surprisingly fun. There is very limited seating and there are many basketball games going on at the same time. There is parking outside for I believe $25 and a food truck for something to eat.
If you know someone who plays here often and has for a while, it may be worth entering a league with that person. If you dont, be prepared for the refs and the guys working the scorers table during games to know everyone on the teams youre playing against and call the games in their favor. Not to mention the fact that there are 10 games going on at the same time so its hard to even hear the refs blow a whistle. New teams arent welcome at this place, its a small fortune to join a league, and the facility is on the east river far away from everything. Ive played in significantly better basketball leagues in NYC
I like it because it show great skills and it has a ok price on it
Nice place. Good spot for a bar mitzvah
Nice place to go
This place is controlled anarchy with so many games being played simultaneously, lots of fun for all.
Great place clean nice staff. We play in a tournament in here during the week. Easy parking because they have a parking lot.
I went there for my son basketball games. Its a really nice setup. There is parking, but it cost 20 dollars. I always find parking outside and its always easy to find parking outside.
This place is open to public. Really nice place, bathrooms were super clean last time I visited there. You can hold matches here. They have referees and score taker. If you love playing basketball you will love this place. Its an indoor place but its by the water. Once youre done playing you can take a nice stroll by the water.
Very nice gym good competition
Went their for the cops vs kids basketball games. Had a lot of fun. I believe they had 6 games going at one time.
Love this place for our games. Just need more food trucks when they hold tournament
Lots of courts and space for basketball, good locker rooms and ample space for spectators. Great location for some games.
Great location was there for the Bike Expo.
Beautiful
This place is big and the food fair that was in it was fantastic.
Good courts well maintained with locker rooms. Mens and women
You have to pay 20 bucks for parking but if you find parking on the street even better!
Each and every time I come to an event here, I have a great time. The location is very easy to get to and there is usually parking available... a lot of parking available. Mainly the Basketball City hosts structured athletic games, but every once in a while they will have a fun event that may use Basketball as the highlight, or something completely unrelated.The space is HUGE, so there is usually no worry about capacity...unless the organizer didnt rent enough space, but there shouldnt be any reason for that. The acoustics can be a bit reverby due to the cavernous nature of the space, but on the whole not too distorted.If you get the chance to attend an event, I think youll have a stress free time and enjoy yourself in the large space.
Nice floors, well ventilated, but $30 for parking?
Came here on January 18th. They immediately attacked us at the door, by they I mean 2 older black men wearing blue rubber gloves and one eating chips. Told us to get out. Despite being in there because we were told to wait in that building specifically. So while trying to explain this to them they wanted nothing to do with it. Wouldnt even let any of us speak. Just kept yelling and literally at one point put their hands on another gentlemans kid and pushed them out the door. Ive now met the most rude and down right most awful people in NYC.
Extremely corrupted facility that overcharges people $200 for the use of a basketball court for an hour.Their attempt to corrupt the game of basketball should not be mistaken.
I went to the fairway good festival, is a good venue.
The Summer Camps are the best in the city. Hands down! I have brought my 2 kids here for the past few years and they can not get enough of this place. The facility is beautiful. The coaches are amazing. My sons have learned so much during their time at BBC and they can not wait to come back this summer. Definitely recommend!
Good courts but very expensive parking
What I dont like about this place is that it is so far away from everything. What I do like is that it is easily transformed for special events. I went here for a Heineken Event and G Shock Event and the set up was nice both times. The sound system had issues both times.
Very spacious and nice place!
Super cool facility, a bit out of the way if youre coming by subway
You go to watch your kid play bball and You have to pay $30 for parking.
Volunteered to help with the 5 Boro ride. Very nice venue. Lots of room and clean restrooms.
I was at the Heineken View Party for the soccer game. This place is a great venue for large parties. Located a bit far from the trains but a totally clean nice place on the water.It has several rooms and floors of entertainment.
Very clean, plenty of space, ample parking, easy to reach, friendly employees, good indoor lighting,
Great place to watch the kids play. Chinatown nearby for post game meal
Great place to develop your skills! Officials are the best around!
Nice new structure. One draw back, with multiple games being played at once its hard to know which ref is blowing the whistle for which game and balls roll off of one court onto another interrupting games.
Terrinke reffs thay ruin the basketball games its ubsurd. I think they are blind
Locker rooms are clean, water fountains, plenty of courts, nice staff and a great place to play ball
Actually a good spot to park the car without a ticket or payment and went on a ferry trip.
This is a place were my son plays basketball. Hes good, and the place is da bomb!!!
Amazing venue with tons of quality courts. Also have a projector screen to play other sports games while youre waiting to play.
Best indoor courts Ive played in, in the city.
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
Great facilities for company or league basketball and events.
I just came back from this event space and it is just great! Heineken threw an event for the final champion league and used the right space if you ask me. I would go back again in a heartbeat!
I was there for the Bike Expo. The event space is fine. Its just a bit far from public transportation.
