What we’re about
The San Diego Pinball Club (SDPC) is a group of pinball enthusiasts who actively promote the sheer enjoyment and thrill of the pastime. We have members from all ages and skill levels - from the veteran hometown bowling alley all star to the never-before-flipped-a-pin beginner.
Membership to the SDPC is not explicitly 21+ but some events will be posted at locations where you must be 21+ to RSVP - we will outline any age requirements within the description of any event.
Many players frequent local tournaments - which is what this page generally will promote - while others are just in love with the sport and want to keep up with the latest news, happenings and gatherings. We encourage anyone and everyone who is interested to attend - or, if you have questions, drop us a message and we will ensure a timely response!
