3.6 km4ème, Marais

Me and my friend went here as we were in Paris for 5 days. A GREAT atmosphere... one of the most…read moreinteresting courts I've ever been to. The only thing was me and my friend forgot to bring a ball so couldn't actually play lol. We just did a couple rim grabs and left. But if we could have played it woulda been cool.

I have been playing basketball at the outdoor courts of Lycée Charlemagne for the entire summer…read more They are pretty much the only place that I have been able to get a consistent game. Kids start arriving around 4 pm but a good game doesn't get underway until around 5 pm. But where else can you play next to a piece of history. The wall where the players line up to get next or sit while waiting for a game is from the 12th century and the oldest city wall of Paris: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall_of_Philip_II_Augustus,_Paris During the weekends I have found showing up around noon is best. I played here the first time I was living in the Marais in 2012. I arrived on a hot Sunday around noon and started playing 2 on 2 and then 3 on 3. So within the hour, there were several people waiting; enough to run 5 on 5 full court. I suggested in English that we pick up 1 person on each team and run full court. That is when I got my response from one of the local players. "We are French. We fought for a 35 hour work week and you want us to run up and down the full court? No. That will not happen." Hilarious. Don't expect to run full court here. Ever. Some rules: Winners stay on. New team gets ball (this is up for debate) Whoever has next must pick up anyone waiting and not someone coming off the losing team who just played. So in France, the game is about making passes and constantly moving and setting picks. If you now how to pick and roll, you'll fit right in.
