ABOUT
THE SPORT
Hoop it up this season in a ESSC Basketball league. Practice your jump
shot, lay-up and defensive skills on the hard court. It’s a 5 on
5 game, with a minimum of two females on the floor at all times. We offer
Recreational, and Recreational Plus divisions. All games have a Coordinator
present but you are expected to call your own fouls and be responsible
for your own play. We encourage you to play with a ‘fun-first’
attitude at our various medium and large sized gyms at schools located
throughout the city. After your game, meet-up with your team mates and
other ESSC players while enjoying exclusive specials at one of our many
Sponsor Bars around Edmonton.
