We run capped open play every Saturday, split by level, so nobody stands around waiting for a court, plus socials, fundraisers, and tournaments that fill out the semester.
Everything runs through this site — verified Berkeley logins, first-come RSVPs, and events that land straight on your Google Calendar the moment you're confirmed.
