About Us
Urban Rec Leagues are all about being active, being social, and having fun. At Urban Rec we stress the FUN and social aspect of playing sports with your friends. It really is all about getting out, meeting people, and generally having a good time.
Urban Rec has one goal: to provide the best possible experience to our members. Whether it's league nights, theme parties, team trips, social gatherings, or other Urban Rec events, we want to provide an unparalleled experience that you'll remember forever.
TOP 5 REASONS
Play to have fun and make new friends. Being social and getting exercise improves overall quality of life and makes you a better person (Please disregard if you're already perfect).
Play to stay active and physically fit all the while enjoying it. Urban Rec leagues are not like running on a treadmill. You aren't a hamster but wouldn't it be fun to drink out of an upside-down watering system.
Play because science says it will make you happy. Exercise makes your body release endorphins. Endorphins reduce pain and trigger positive feelings!
Play because your professional career didn't take off and you still have competitive streak that needs to be satisfied.
(Please note: skill levels are taken into consideration so all the hyperactive jocks / jockettes are in their own league.)
Play because you love the game. Speaking of love, maybe you'll meet your next significant other?
(Disclaimer: Urban Rec takes no responsibility for any romantic connections made as a result of joining a team. We aren't love gurus)
Home Business Owners

Urban Rec offers coed basketball leagues that play at the Christine Sinclair Centre in Burnaby as well as at the Richmond Oval, and SFU (some seasons). Each league is night-specific and games are played in 1-hour time slots between 7pm-11pm each week (not all hours may be available for all leagues depending on court allocations from the facilities).
