Da Ugly Devil's Heaven

TC stands for Tri-Chandra College. TC is one of the oldest college of Kathmandu or Nepal as a whole. In the heart of TC, there is the monument, “Ghanta Ghar,” Roman-styled clock which gives NST (Nepali Standard Time). And the opposite of that monument there is another monument called “Rani Pokhari.” Besides the “Rani Pokhari” is the central office and building of TC, and at the corner we have our own basketball court, which has been our home court since 9-10 years back. Since college, we started playing there. Though we are not the actual student of TC, we have been involved in several games from TC. People there have respect on us and they know us as TC Basketball players. Most of them even don’t know that we haven’t ever studied there but as we always hang around there and play basketball not only for fun but even participated in several tournaments from TC team. At those times, we used to play daily throughout the day. Sometimes, I don’t even have my food and I will be playing all day long in those sunny days, as the result of which we get skin burn. But who cares? As long as we have basketball to play. We just love the game and more often love to play and have fun with it. I don’t know the exact measurement of the court but it seems pretty big than the usual ones. I believe it must be of NBA professional court. It is the biggest courtyard I have know that ever exists in Nepal. One in Tribhuwan University is a big court as well but I think TC’s court is even bigger than that one as the 3-point range is pretty far as compared to Tribhuwan University’s court. As time went by, lots of our friends went abroad and we have less friends who are regular players there now. So from daily, it has become once a week on Saturdays that we play in our home court. I hope in future, we still will have the same number of friends remaining and I am afraid it wouldn’t be once a year play or so. For now I am enjoying once a week game on Saturdays. Lets play some hoop guys! In our own home court! TC Court!!!
