A warm welcome to YÖKORIS – joy and good vibes! Come and experience unforgettable moments with friends. Enjoy DJ music on summer evenings and relax – you can shoot some hoops or just enjoy the sun. Our events are alcohol-free and full of positive energy. Follow our schedules on Instagram.
YÖKORIS is a relaxed and fun way to spend time with friends playing basketball around Helsinki. We have games all year round and provide everything you need – just show up. You can experience intense matches or casual shooting, all according to your preference.
Every day you’ll find us in different parts of the capital region, including Helsinki, Espoo, and Vantaa. In the winter, we organize events at youth centers and Liikuntamylly. YÖKORIS isn’t limited to just basketball – we also organize events for other sports like football and volleyball. Our activities are part of the Helsinki YMCA project, supported by STEA. Come join us to experience the joy of sports and community!
