Mate, you can't have 3, need to pick 1.

Alright. Its Marion. Sooooo small.

Port Adelaide: Slippery floors, but at least spectators can sit without their feet on court. If you're lucky you find a half smoked fag in the car park and can smoke the rest. Probably not a good idea to skull the iced coffee container you find. You can get a good coffee and half stale donut on a Friday night.

Marion: Ceiling looks like it is about the collapse and one time I was there there was a possum in the rafters. Poor spectator seating + you can't walk from one end to the other during a game without walking in front of the coach, or walking on court. The scorebench is tight and seating pretty average.

Hillcrest: Carpark is woeful. Holes and uneven surface is a accident waiting to happening. The only people happy with the lighting standard are the local muggers and molesters. Inside, they obviously used the same architect and floor plan as Hillcrest.

Based on the dodgy carpark, Hillcrest would need to be the voted the worst basketball stadium.

Didnt realise there were places worse then Turramurra, Burragah or Ingle Farm?

We're mostly talking about district basketball stadiums....

But feel free to include a desdription about those stadiums

Marion by far ,get it demolished and a stadium with a two court wider spaces its time the local government would assist sporting stadiums or leave it like it is for another 30 years.I Played in 1987 for Bearcats and still same stadium today.My friends kids will only play at Mars Wayville or Pasadena and Vale the family usally bypass shitty stadiums whereas the kids would call in sick because the kids know its unsafe place to play,fear of getting injured where there is limit of space on sidelines.

I forgot about St Clair.....
WORST STADIUM EVER

seriously pie poof?kids wont play in these stadiums ?obviously related to you.Jack,stating molesters are at certain stadiums is wrong and very vindictive coming from a boy who wears makeup and idolizes make believe movie villains ?

all 4 mentioned - ? I think they do not have proper FIBA dimensions.

Hillcrest Stadium.

Damage all over inside and out.

Anon, I am not stating that molesters are at certain stadiums.

There is an Australian Standard for illumination of carparks. Hillcrest carpark is well below that minimum lux value.

When carparks are poorly lit, they are dangerous.

It is Walford High School - we played SACBA this year. Worst hoops in the history of basketball. The hoops were not regulation size, they were as thin as netball rings and the net was tied directly to the hoop.

No 2 court at the old Forestville Stadium - first it was cement, secondly the grandstand from court 1 hung over the court, third, the sideline between court 1 and 2 was a solid panel about 1 foot from the edge of the court.

LOVED Court 2 at Forestville...where else but the place of one-way freeways

Hillcrest by far

Central's old stadium was pretty bad, the old Rec centre I think?

left many a layer of skin on the cement at court 2 at forestville )

I remember having to duck under the walk way under the tram line on the way into old Forrestville stadium court 2 bad, but I think Hillcrest out ranks Marion as the worst only just though.

if a sprung wooden floor is hurting your knees, ankles and shins' it may be time to hang up the whistle???

Perhaps try and sweep them before games like refs used too.

played social bball at gawler starplex and parafield gardens and both were great/very good respectively.

played one game at st clair and never went back. lol. it was shocking. bad floor, bad backboards ,rims, lights were dim. gave me a whole new respect for parafield gardens lol.

Played 1 season for my work team in the early 1970's on the number 4 court off to the side at St Clair - the roller skating rink the rest of the week. Couldnt go for a 3 point shot there as the ball would hit the roof with my normal loop. The next year, played at Apollo Stadium in the first season or 2 that it was opened when playing for South Adelaide Metro B team. Used to jump a foot higher there.

Heard someone lost a nissan micra in one of the holes in the Marion carpark during a storm this year. Bloody disgrace and dangerous. The canteen never has hot food and the drink machines are usually empty. Court surface is bearable.
