Does anyone know of any parks in Paris with basketball hoops?

My son in law has asked me if there are any parks in Paris with basketball hoops where he might find a game of "pick up" basketball during his first time visit in August.

I am not aware of any but then basketball is not my game . Thank you for any information that I can "pass" on to him. Deborah

JandaO, thanks for the site. I certainly shows that there are many sporting possibilities in France. I'm just hoping to find that basketball might be played somewhere. Our French exchange students loved playing here so I thought it might be played in Paris as well. Thanks again, Deborah

john, thank you, that was what I was hoping to hear. Guess my SIL can pack his court shoes. His size 14 shoes take up alot of space so he wasn't going to bring them if he couldn't find a game Deborah

You're welcome. We actually commented on the courts because they seemed "out of place" since we hadn't seen a basketball since we left home!
