hello neighbours :hello:
well, I'm from Lithuania, and as basketball is sport number one in my country, i'm a big fan too..not only a fan actually, i play it as well. in fact i like a lot of different types of sport, including tennis, beach volleyball, football and so on. Also i have an interest in finance, investments (that's why i'm going to study Mathematics). books, movies take a fair amount of time in my life as well. and i will be staying in 12F :wink:

We will get along fine if you like bball :biggrin:

Are you planning on joining the team there?

well i would like to join the team, but not too sure about the level. uni teams in my country are pretty strong, almost as strong as professional clubs, so if it's similar in qmul than there is no way i could play there. but if it's not so tough in england, or just in qmul, then definitely YES :smile: what about u?

mate you have to send a signed copy of license agreement and a cheque to residences office. or you can choose an alternative way of payment..for instance direct bank transfer, or payment with a debit or a credit card. u decide. anyway if you still have questions, just call them :wink:
it seems that we will be able to make our own MAYNARD HOUSE TEAM :biggrin:

wow so many basketball players pretty cool. yep we have many b ball courts, the most used other than the sports hall, is the mile end park court. come down if you want your ankles broken by me and my mates loool:biggrin:

ohhhh the university basketball team is friggin hard to get into btw people. coach is American, and theirs a lot of American students who want in and have played the game all their life.

try outs consisted of a hour long jog with your arms raised and after that he expected you to shoot hoops loool. it is a well respected team though
