Hi guys,

Forgive my user name PoppaHoppa. I used to earn nicknames like Whirlybirds and dipsy for fancy moves, air time and deft passing but now most seem to call me OG or Pops until I score on them or block their shot. Respect never comes easy I guess.

It's hard being on the forefront of the Boomer age group in a largely sedentary society. I still love basketball and play somewhat competitively whenever I simply remember what I can do (-: I have seen some growth in 50 year olds playing but finding guys in their 60's who are still playing (well) is a problem in colorado. Started networking with some others now so we can play at the Masters Tourney in May and then Saint George so if you are like me - still active - hit me up. Love to chat. Where are all the ex D1 and pro players anymore. That was the bad part of leaving NYC. I played with many NBA players routinely and D1 players. Rumor is they turned intoi Beluga Whales. We all struggle with weight and injuries but again...feel inspired, get in touch.

PH

Hi all 60+ 5 on 5 basketball players.  PoppaHoppa and I are looking for good basketball players to connect for competitions in May and October.  Need forwards or centers at least 6' 5".  Contact either of us to discussions.  Can you still run?  We need you.  Best regards, NOHOPS
