Welcome to the University of
Houston's Faculty and Staff NBA*
We welcome players of all ages and
skill levels to join us between 12:00 and 1:00 five days a week at the
Garrison Gym for healthy, competitive, comically entertaining basketball.
For a small fee you will have access to a stylish pair of shorts and a
t-shirt, plus a locker, shower, towel and access to UH's new weightroom.
To be eligible for the NBA you must be either a UH faculty, teaching assistant
or staff member but we do occasionally make exceptions for those with ties
to UH. Our games go to 10 baskets and generally, 'winners' (the phrase
is used loosely) are only allowed to remain on the court for two games.
This system allows everyone an opportunity to play regularly and prevents
the grizzled veterans from wearing down over the course of the year around
'season'. We play a 'gentleman's' game where the 'offensive' player
(and we have many) call their own fouls. This approach keeps disagreements
to a minimum and contributes to an enjoyable experience.
Visit our page often as we will
be naming a player of the month, providing occasional feature stories and
player 'profiles'.
Please come by and give our brand
of recreation a try. If you have additional questions please call
me at 743-9868 or e-mail me at clayne2@bayou.uh.edu.
