Every Sunday until March (end of basketball season), the Presidio Gym will be reserved for OTA Students & Siblings (3rd Grade & older*), Alumni, Parents & Grandparents from 2-4 PM * This is not basketball practice, but free play time, though the Presidio counselors and OTA Coaches will help organize games and shooting competitions.
*Students in K-2 may attend only if a parent stays with them (in general we don’t recommend it as the baskets are too high and most children in K-2 are too small to play with the older children; but you know your child best).

  • Presidio Gym: 2811 Jackson Street, San Diego, CA 92110 – (619) 692-4918

The more parents who stay and play the better; but you may also drop off your 3rd-8th grade child/ren any time after 2 and pick them up at 4 PM. Please remember the gym will close at 4 PM and they will not be able to wait inside.

Call for Assistant Coaches!
