Pray!:lol:

Just shoot as high of an ISO as you need to in order to get it done. Grainy pictures are better than no pictures 100% of the time.

Like Adam said, shoot at a high ISO such as 1600 or even give 3200 a try. More than likely you'll be shooting at 2.8 if the lighting is poor so try and keep the shutter speed as high as you can get it. Also, be careful of your white balance as gyms can have such varied lighting.
If you're using a 24-70 you may want to get on the baseline just to the right of the basket so your images will be tight enough. You can get some great action in that area. Try setting your 40D at AI Servo with the center focusing square and follow the action best you can.
These are just starting points as the actual conditons may differ. Have fun and let's see your snaps when you're done.

get the 85mm 1.8 it will allow you to get more shutter speed in darker areas but keep your ISO at 1600 to 3200
