Just graduated from ISU and moved down to West Des Moines for my job. Was wondering if anybody knew of any church leagues/pick up basketball leagues around the area that would be open to a "newbie" playing once a week or so. Thanks to anybody that has some insight!

Side Note: I'd like to think I don't suck at basketball, I did win a C-League intramural basketball championship last year lol

I havent seen any church basketball leagues but that doesnt mean they dont exist. Best bet is to research and find what one has gyms.

Lots of run at the Ys and I assume LifeTime has leagues if u want to go the non church route.

Also they play ball all summer long at Evelyn Davis Park near Drake so that is another option.
 
I’m willing to bet Hope has one. They have the gym and I’ve played in one there but that was 10 or so years ago. Might be worth checking out.

Me and some buddies did the Waukee city league a few years ago. Went 0-8, just a blast lol. Sometimes church leagues pickup in the fall. I'll let you know if I hear anything.

You could also look into joining Aspen and getting into some early Saturday morning games there. I used to do that every week for about 3 hours those days.
