So You Think You Want to Play in a League, Live 45-Minute Zoom Class with Michelle Tinney of Cypress Mahjong

Live on Zoom, Wednesday, July 22, 2026, 7:00 PM ET (45 minutes).

A league is a different animal than your weekly game. It is regular, it is a little more structured, and for a lot of players it is the thing that finally takes their game to the next level. If you have been wondering whether a league is right for you, this class is built to help you decide with your eyes open.

Leading it is Michelle Tinney of Cypress Mahjong. Michelle is the Dr. Seuss of mahjong, she will go here, there, and everywhere to play, and she has made a name for herself winning in leagues and tournaments, including playing for money. She knows what makes league play tick, and she is going to take the mystery out of it for you.

The format is simple. Michelle brings the expertise, you bring your questions. By the end you will understand how a league actually runs, how scoring carries across sessions, the rhythm of playing the same group week after week, and how to find or start one that fits you.

A few things worth knowing:

• One live 45-minute session on Zoom with Michelle
• The Zoom recording, so you can rewatch anything you want to revisit
• A follow-up PDF that pulls the key takeaways together in one place

Whether you are ready to join a league or just trying to picture what it would be like, you will leave knowing exactly what to expect and whether it is your next move.
