I know this topic has been covered before, but only in outdated posts. I was wondering if anyone could suggest good places to ball indoors. Not including the occasional, nice semi-warm days, the weather has gotten too cold to play outdoors.

I am actually looking for any places near Shinchon, Hongdae, or Ehwa Univ. Anyone? I don't mind paying a small fee either for gym access! Thanks!

yonsei university in sinchon apparently has indoor on sunday mornings from what ive heard, but i dont know any details really...we might go check it out this coming sunday...hopefully this is somewhat of a help...ez

I used to live in Sinchon and yeah, you can play indoor ball at Yonsei.

During good weather, there are constant pick up games at Yonsei and HongIk, as well as at SNU. For indoor pickup games, you can hit up one fo the 'Gu' health clubs. Used to play a lot when I first came over. Pretty much any university court will have a game on in decent weather. Get ready to run, brother, cause they don't play zone!

Thanks guys!!! So it seems as though Yonsei's gym is the place to ball. By the way, what is a 'Gu' gym??

How was the ball at yonsei? How many people were playing? Were they any good? What's the time to go at? How much is the fee to play? I like asking questions.

ballhoggin' is taken to another level in this country; it's always that 5 ft nothing cat that hogs the rock.

Who gives a crap. Put on some shorts, grab your sneakers and get on over.

I guess it was in the morning.. because I checked it out at noon and there were Koreans in there with team uniforms. What time do you guys go at?
