Halifax Rainbow Encyclopedia: Friday Night Basketball

FridayNightBasketball was one of many SportsGroups in Halifax.

Friday Night Basketball

This small group was started in 2007 by a few individuals who wanted a winter activity.

Every Friday night during winter there was pick-up basketball for the GLBT community (and friends). Play was from 8:30 to 9:30 at the Chocolate Lake Rec Centre (14 Purcell's Cove Road, Halifax). Membership for the entire season cost $85; weekly play was $3.
