I've heard that maybe some courts are available at Doha Junior High School.

But I have to check this.

As for me, I can play during the week end, or even week days after 7 pm...

Have a nice week guys. Waiting for your motivation, which seems has vanished these last days.

So three 1-on-1 matches for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd?

Don't worry telljax, some more ppl will hopefully reply, and if not, we'll refresh the thread or post a new one.

Byyyy the way, thiss has just reminded me, that a similar post has been posted a while ago, and quite a number of ppl replied with interest to play basketball, try searching for that thread, and if you find it, you've found us some more ppl to kick in !

let me know if you don't find the thread (it's going to be hard with the search feature now gone!)

Can't wait to get there too!

So here's what I'll do: I'll definately keep you in mind, and I'll keep checking every once in a while on where we got in forming a basketball group.

When I do get to Doha, I will contact you guys.

& Keep that in mind - don't you be surprised when I contact you, don't say: 'whooooo?' Yes, it's gonna be me, and I'm gonna be joining the group ;) & If there's no group by that time, I'm gonna have to take it 1on1 with you guys (yes a game, but also a group initiation :p).

Till then, I wanna hear the dribblin' reaching me here !

PS: keep in touch

Q_view, It's great to know that someone out here knows what Cornellian stands for lol, Cornell is kicking my ass every single day and yet i still manage to keep a smile on...ahh the mysteries of life ! Can't wait for u to get here so we can play!

aite guys and gals lets do this...keep posting and as soon as we get 10 to 15 ppl.....we play ball....

) P.S..the talk in no way co-relates to the way i play...)

Alrrriigghhtt.

So - I like the idea (very much).

And - I'd like to join you guys.

But - I am not in Doha (yet).

In turn - I'd like if you keep me in mind till I arrive.

Maybe - by that time: you'll have a full team (or two) and a steady meeting/game day&time every week.

I will keep you in mind - and I'll contact you when I get there.

Till then - Keep on dribblin' !

1 Final Note: Cornellian: You say, in your profile, that you "kick ass at basketball". We're just gonna have to wait and see ;)

PS: How's Cornell working out for you?

:)
