At the Table

A Los Angeles tournament circuit rolls through the summer

Mah Jongg Fun L.A. has one-day tournaments scheduled across three area temples from July into August.

Mah Jongg Fun L.A. lists a run of one-day American mah jongg tournaments across the Los Angeles area this summer. Its schedule shows July 12 at Temple Ramat Zion in Northridge, July 26 at Temple Beth Hillel in Valley Village, and August 16 at Temple Judea in Tarzana.

The dates read as a circuit rather than a single event, giving players in the San Fernando Valley several chances to sit down at a competitive table over a few weeks.

OOTT is not affiliated with the organizer and does not sell entries. The full schedule is on the Mah Jongg Fun L.A. site.
