We all love our Tuesday/Thursday play nights. Together, we can make it more enjoyable for all. Below you will find MBC’s rules. Kindly take the time to read these before your next game night.

Be kind. Be better.

Speak to any of the administrators should you have any questions/concerns – Vinu, Raj, Saki, Leanne.

Hi Team

The issue about the slippery gym floors has been raised to the town. We suspect that the issue is that when we change shoes we do it on the sides of the courts where we all stand when we are not playing so we track it on ourselves once we get back on court.

We kindly ask that everyone bring court shoes that are different than their outside shoes and to make a conscious effort to try to not track dried salt and other outside dirt back on the court.

If the issue of slippery floors persists, kindly let us know by sending an email to us.

Thanks! See you all tonight!

Name tags will be created at 8:15 PM. Please come early if you need one 🙂
