Over at Mormon Shadow, Ronan revealed the establishment of his International Mormons Against American Domination guerrilla organisation.
It seems their first order of business is to remove basketball courts from all LDS chapels in the UK and replace them with soccer fields. What a great idea.
Canadians don't play basketball. We have only two NBA franchises for Pete's sake, and they've only been around since the 1990s. The only Canadians that even watch basketball are Mormons.
That being said, I don't think soccer fields would go over very well here either. So I propose that IMAAD installs hockey rinks in Canada. If that won't do, I think we'd settle for lacrosse or rugby fields.
I'm not much of an athlete anymore (especially with my arthritis), so I'd personally prefer a pool hall.

In Guatemala the church buildings have their basketball courts outside. The only people who tend to use them are the missionaries. But there is a catch. The back-board is sitting on top of a soccer-goal, so the court can be used for a miniature soccer game as well. This actually works out really well down there.
"I love hockey (stupid deal this year)"
Unless you watch the CHL.
More importantly, is the IMAAD going to insert thousands of extra u's in the British BOM?
What about a Canadian BOM with English/French parallel text?
They'd probably just reprint the 1950 British edition of the book of Mormon.
Basketball courts? I never saw any basketball courts in any church buildings in Europe (and by "Europe" I mean, of course, "France").
Anyway, we played soccer in the gym in our meetinghouse in Sandy, UT, basketball standards notwithstanding. You just have to lay some folding tables against the accordian doors for great wall-pass action on both sides of the field...er, pitch.

I vote for adding Poker Tables to the Cultural Halls in the U.S. You'd get a lot more brethren out for EQ socials (maybe even some "less actives") and the church could take a 1% rake. It's not gambling if it's for a good cause, right?
