Welcome to Pong Empire 🀄
Our Story
We started off as a group of strangers who came together through a shared mental health journey, and a desire to connect to our Asian cultures.
Since April 2022, we've met regularly over delicious shared plates and a casual game of mahjong to reconnect with our heritages and each other.
Our Tables
The Pong Empire is a casual mahjong club and safe space to learn. We're a collection of amateurs, online gamers, and players-through-observation.
We usually have three tables - a “high rollers” table where score is kept, a “low rollers” table for those keen to practice their hands, and a “food table” where everyone brings a plate to share.
New players usually start with the basic hands (pongs and chis) based on Mama Jessalyn's Mum's rules before moving onto the Fan system.
Novice players are welcome to shadow a more experienced player, but can start wherever they feel most comfortable!

Interested in taking a seat?
While we're currently a club of friends, we may expand in the future. Sign up for a spot at an upcoming game.
We play on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, and would like to acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as Australia’s First People and Traditional Custodians. Sovereignty has never been ceded. It always was and always will be, Aboriginal land.
