I’m looking to play basketball indoors near downtown. I’ve heard about people playing at Dixon mills. Any suggestions….

Thanks!

Yeah Dixon is just not it, low grade competition and poorly maintained court, plus it's private property

I played there a few times and watched three or four people injure their ankles because they don’t sweep or maintain the wood floor. Play at your own discretion

Free if you live there and have ID, if not you need to pay $150 for a 2 hour run. Biggest rip off possible and every dude playing smells like shit

I’ve played there a couple times and the court is in bad shape. Last time I was there my friend JJ who is in amazing shape probably could beat anyone in here tore his ACL and needed surgery. He’ll probably never be the same again on the court. Won’t be going back to Dixon again

Think I got 2 runs in the 2.5 hours I was there last time and the dude I was guarding called a foul on me several times

I tried sneaking in and security came and threw me out. They threatened to charge me for trespassing if I came back. DON’T go there!

Don’t play at Dixon Mills. Place is a slum anyway.

every single time I’ve played here some1 goes down with an acl tear. Court is slanted. bathrooms are consistently locked so players have to pee in empty water bottles. Competition is worth noting … 1 dude played in jeans and had a Bluetooth ear piece in. Smelled like shit

I heard there was a shooting around there recently too

Indoor courts in downtown JC area are hard to come by. Dixon mills is probably your best shot if you’re looking for the free option, but the catch is you’d have to know someone who lives there to be able to get into the building (DM is a private residence).

The other alternative is to join zog and pay their league fees.

Rent an apartment at 88 Regent, enjoy indoor basketball courts as an amenity. :)
