What we’re about
TG Basketball Club organizes upper-intermediate and competitive level 5-on-5 indoor pickup basketball sessions on weeknights and weekends at centrally located gyms in Tokyo.
We welcome experienced players looking for fast-paced games and good competition. Most of our members are international (80%), with a mix of Japanese players as well. Each session typically draws around 20 players, including 1–2 female players on occasion.
🏀 Who Can Join?
We host competitive-level pickup games only.
However, beginners and lower-intermediate players are welcome to attend as spectators (free of charge). You're free to shoot around during breaks, but please note you will not be allowed to join the actual games unless your skill level is suitable.
✅ How to Join:
- All sign-ups are done via our Meetup events.
- Simply RSVP on the event page to secure your spot.
- If you can’t make it, please update your RSVP so we can offer your spot to someone else.
- Sessions may be canceled if we don’t get enough sign-ups, so signing up early helps keep the game on!
📌 Rules & Guidelines:
- We may decline players from joining the games if their basketball skills are significantly below the group’s level, to maintain game quality and flow.
- Indoor shoes only – no outdoor shoes allowed on the court.
- No kids, smoking, alcohol, or disruptive behavior at any session.
- The organizers reserve the right to refuse participation or remove members who violate guidelines.
💰 Fee:
- ¥1,500 per session – collected on-site before the game begins.
- No membership or cancellation fees.
- The fee covers court rental, equipment, booking fees, club maintenance, and time spent organizing.
We understand the cost may seem high for pickup games, but this fee helps keep the club running. If that’s an issue, we respectfully suggest holding off on joining.
We’re here to provide a great hoops experience, not run a business. Thanks for supporting community basketball in Tokyo!
See you on the court! 🏀
