Sorry to break the news to you, these conditions are absolutely horrible for the following reasons:
1. Worst possible location for light - weird shadows, poor contrast, totally unflattering light.
2. Fluorescent lights have a frequency of 60 hz, and will flicker. Using a shutter speed that is shorter than 1/125 sec will expose you to taking images during an "off" cycle - resulting in strange color and uneven exposure, even across the frame.
3. But the action is fast, and you would want a shutter speed of at least 1/500 or shorter. So you have a no-win situation.
Unless you can get your own lighting or a camera that has an anti-flicker feature, all I can say is take a lot of exposures, and be prepared to toss half of them.

I think the 7dmkii has the anti flicker feature. when i first read it i did not appreciate how useful it can be in this venue.
