The WCS Basketball group is a game organized to offer play to the Senior crowd who would/still enjoy this form of exercise and competition while in the Destin area.
We play starting the 1st Monday (01/06/25) and every week until the end of February. Those who are local or have a longer window of time, are able to get a head start or play into March if enough are available beyond the 2 months.
Play is 1/2 court, and teams are made up as fellows show up rotation after each game is usual. We generally follow the National Senior Games rules of play. 3 on 3, or if more are available, 4 on 4 or 5 on 5. We have both ends with baskets,
thus we can easily accommodate 12 to 20 players. Best to bring white and dark shirts, good court shoes etc.
There is no cost at play time, however it's customary that we chip in an amount at the end of Feb. for a presentation
to the DUMC for use of the beautiful courts. Generally, we've figured a $5 per visit as a suggestion.
Our ages range from about mid 40's to the oldest at 88. So don't use age as a reason not to give it a try. Several plyers
bring their Favorite BB, so you don't need any equipment.
Please feel free to join us to see if this is an activity you'd like to be a part of thanks
