Miss you ALL !!! Stay Safe

In light of current status of the Corona virus outbreak, and taking into account the restrictions set forth by the order, it is not tenable for us to hold group play at this time. Therefore, we are suspending group play until further notice/until the order is lifted at all of our locations: De Anza/Harry Lyon, Juanamaria Park, and the Ventura Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints gym (already closed).
