I PLAY BASKETBALL WITH DESI FRIENDS NOW AND THEN.PLENTY OF INDO-PAK TRASH TALK GOES ON. LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO JOIN US SOMETIMES.

Been playin crimson football for 10 years now.
Your idea sounds good for NY'S muslims. INSHA'ALLAH Im sure you can launch it here too.
As for myself, I dont care if they're brown,white,red, green..just if they can bring a good game.

I have membership at a local gym here, but I thought I'd break the monotony. I guess I'm just craving ethnic. Use to live in philly and houson, where we'd organize basketball games with muslims in the area. It kinda added some spice to the games, especially with some friendly cultural trash-talking. I hope the only muslim-sport in NYC isn't the one named after an insect. Well, I'll keep my eyes open. Getting group memberships at sports clubs is a good idea. Thanks for the tips. In the meantime, I'll be working out with Bruno.
btw, you play any ball?

many universities have alumni associations for ex-athletes who get together on weekends and such to play.Usually they use public facilities.I,myself play with old teammates.
If that's not an option for you, there are private clubs in NY like Equinox Fitness Clubs and the New York Sports Clubs that give group memberships to their courts for team usage.
The only all-muslim sport team I'v heard of in ny are cricket ones, but that barely counts as a sport at all.
But if it's the gut your trying to hit, why not hook up with a trainer at your gym?.That's what I'd do.

best of luck.
