  • This court

    Is behind the Aldi in Selly Oak. There are two courts there, one is like Calthorpe fences with big open goals. The other one (in the pictures) has highgate style fencing. With only one ball-sized gap where the big gate is (pictured).

    It has lights, but they are are smaller than Calthorpe so not sure how effective they are, or if they even work (went in the day). There is also a bush protruding onto the court (pictured) and some moss on that side that would need sweeping before the wet weather comes. The surface is probably slightly worse than Calthorpe, but, if the fences are better, the gaps are better, the lights are good enough and the kids aren't as populous* it may be worth a go.

    • there were six kids there kicking a ball at each other and saying fuck nearly constantly when we were there, but because there are two courts they obvs wanted the footy one.

    Anyone know any more about this court, or want to give it a go sometime? even if we just went down one evening to see if the lights work and the number of kids..
