Basketball 9am 3/7/12

Hello

I was wondering if anyone has travelled at this time and did they get there really early?

Travelling from Cambridge to cockfosters (only because we know where we can park!) then getting the tube to kings cross, then the javelin.. looked into getting a train from here and the cost for a family of 5 was extortionate!

I was aiming to get there just gone 8am.. does that sound ok or do you reckon we will be cutting it fine??!!

Thanks :-)

    Security seems to be working very efficiently. The main problem is that the Olympic Park is absolutely huge and the basketball area is a long way from the main Stratford gate. If you get there at 8am you should be OK but make sure you go straight to the venue - there will be plenty of time for looking around afterwards.

    We're going to basketball for the same session tomorrow. We live a bit closer but planning to get to the Olympic Park for around half 7. Have a fab day and might see you there :D
