2023 was a triumphant return year for the EBGL as we boasted a new record roster size, record attendance at some events, and a record amount spent on our sponsor (Mission: Fun & Games).

Huge thanks to all of our members and of course our sponsor for making our 2023 season a memorable one! We hope to see you all on November 17th for the 2024 Season Registration event!
