Ew to the penis.

I can take snaps, sure. I found them when I took an accidental detour one day.
The first one is a nice ish area but with a few kids, the second one is right next to a massive estate in PeckTown but empty.

Hey Joni your second link court I spotted too, it has a guttering most of the way round the edges which would be really annoying to have to pick the ball out of. Plus the area is a little unsavoury.

Ghetto court at abandoned school. Really good quality surface. Good size. Fences in good condition. Some shrubbery issues. There are two fixed poles where the net would be though.

It's proper abandoned wasteland apocalypse style but the court looks sweet. It's quite a distance from other properties and there's loads of room for camping if it ever came down to it. There's also a pub about half a mile away.

35mins from Waterloo. Then a couple of miles from Farnborough Main.

tourney...

polo camp

Polo Fest?

haven't been to see if it has lights...

^nice will cruise down and have a look in a few

from streetview it appears there are no lights

fuck.

how's mitch these days anyway? is there still a real need to find more courts?

That looks good Matt.
I was riding past the tennis courts at the top end of Highbury Fields last night.
Whats the deal with them in the winter? Do they still get used for tennis, the lights were amazing.
Without the nets you would have a nice size square court with small walls at either end and fencing on either side.

and a couple of poles for the net (maybe not if they are removables)

I reckon they must be removable

We should def look into that.. Normally you can just yank them out

I don't know how you get the link but search for Gunstor Road N16 and there is a court there. I only passed it briefly so didn't get full spec. Unlikely to have lights but worth a look at if anyone is in the area (Stoke Newington)

it has goals at each end and no room behind them

what is this?

:O ... no lights... ?

I may persuade some teams to play some away league games here. Breakfast definitely included.

... 2 courts, flat surface, lights, barriers all round similar to Newington, and hardly ever used. But one court has basketball hoops with the posts inside the court and one has football style goals.

This one's been looked at a few times, not sure what the outcome was but it's usually busy with kids playing footie.

benches! nice! ... could be good if we can work on the lights.

then i found this one, crazy central.. argyll sq. w1

looks cool, surface will probably shred tyres a bit and theres one hole in the surface
