Whether it’s for the great workout you'll get or meeting other players, open gym is a popular activity at the Michigan Athletic Club. General times to find a game are: Monday-Friday 11:30am-2pm, and 5-8pm; Saturday 8-11am; and Sundays vary.

Guidelines:
• The first 10 players to sign their names on the challenge board will play in the first game. Thereafter, players will play in the order in which they have signed up on the board.
• Games will be played to 10 points or a 20 minute time limit, whichever is shortest. All baskets will count as one point.
• If a game is not completed by one team scoring 10 points prior to the 20 minute time limit, then there will be a shoot-out between three players from each team. The three players chosen from each team will shoot one free throw apiece. The team with the most free throws made after (3) shots from each team, will be declared the winner.
• The winner of each game stays on the court for the next game. However, if a team has won (3) consecutive games, and there is another team waiting, the winners must give up the court and sign up again on the playing board.
• A player may only sign his or her name on the challenge board.
• When a game ends, a player signed up on the challenge board must be present and ready to play or else they lose their position on the board.
• A player may not give a challenge position to another player. If a player chooses not to use a challenge spot, the next player on the board becomes eligible to play.
• You MUST be 15 years or older to sign up on the challenge board. Individuals between the ages of 15-18 years old may not be eligible to play if MAC Management determines that the persons size or skill level may result in injury.
• These guidelines are designed to allow all members the opportunity to participate in challenge basketball. If these guidelines are not being followed, please call the service desk at 4-8888 and ask for the Manager on Duty to come to the basketball courts.
