N2 - Informal participation in sport is a universal practice across time, space, and culture. One such manifestation is “pick-up games.” A pick-up game is an informal version of a team sport played by an arbitrary or selected group of people who play because they want to, not because they have to. The purpose of this article is to highlight why pick-up games ought to be included in such institutions and to offer suggestions for how to do so.
