🎱 END OF TERM 3 SHOWDOWN @ BALLERS 🎉

We’re taking over the Library and Garden at Ballers Clubhouse Carlton for one big Term 3 party - pool, darts, shuffleboard, and the whole MBS crowd under one roof. Challenge someone to darts. Meet an FT28 you’ve never spoken to. Lose spectacularly at shuffleboard and laugh about it for the rest of the term.

📅 Friday 18 September
⏰ 6:30pm - late
🎯 Pool + darts + shuffleboard, drinks tab and canapes!

No dress code. No effort required. Just show up and start a game.
