Summer competitive group

🆕🚨 Are you looking for a competitive group this summer?  If you’re interested, we invite you to join our tryout round. This ensures that players who earn a spot are strong competitors who can elevate the level of play and bring intensity to each game. By passing the tryout, you’ll be guaranteed to play with other strong players.

Once you earn a spot, you’ll have weekly access to two courts and compete at a high level with other strong players. Feather shuttles will be used, and only top performers will be part of this group.
