Hi,
I live in Barrington and am looking to see if there are any women's basketball leagues out there. I know this is probably rare if not non-existant, but I thought I'd check with all of you to see if this sort of thing exists.
I belong to Prairie Stone Sports and Wellness Center in Hoffman Estates and they don't have a women's league (of course they have a men's league!) so I thought maybe one of the park districts in the area?
Thanks,
S.
I didn't find any leagues for women's basketball, however I got many responses from women who would love to play. If there's anyone else out there interested in playing, please let me know. Maybe we could set up our own team. We would need to find somewhere to play that you don't have to be a "member" so if anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it.
I'm guessing a weeknight would be best if we can arrange it, but let me know what you think.
Thanks!
S.
Yeah, it's alittle tough finding a league like that. I did find this link. http://goliath.ecnext.com/coms2/gi_0199-6471431/Basketbal...
that you may try. I also do pick up games in the local Y or set up matches with friends.
The only one I know of is at Willow Creek Church in South Barrington.
Mount Prospect has a womans league. My daughter played in it for years. Just call the district
Hi S.-
I would love to hear if you find any leagues. I live in N. Hoffman Estates and MIGHT (big MIGHT, considering I haven't played in years)be interested in playing as well. I played in college and after just having my 3rd child need to get back in shape and would be fun to play again. I'm sure after all of these years it might be a little ugly though.....Years ago there was a league I played in that was in Mt. Prospect. Not sure if it was through the park district???

Hi S.!
I belong to Willow Creek church there in Barrington and I know that they have a large sports ministry that has various basketball teams. I don't know if they currently have a women's team, but if someone started one, I'm sure you'd have more women come forward.
Hi S. - yes Willow does have a league they play Friday nights I am not a member of Willow so you don't need to be they do a pray circle before the games begin but that is about it for the religious aspect of playing at Willow. Very nice gym the refs are okay have had a couple terrible ones but it is a great workout and i think they just finished up a league last week or next week. I've been on maternity leave from playing with my team. Have a 7 week old girl.
Email me your name and a contact number and height perhaps if interested in playing with us Fridays when the next league starts up or if you want to do just an open gym kind of thing i have a contact for that too on Tuesdays near Lake Zurich. My email is: ____@____.com Happy hoops hunting
I am with you 100%. I have looked for leagues also and can only find men's. I live near Crystal Lake now and still nothing. If you find anything please let me know I am very interested in playing again. Even though its been a while.
