Don't know about any tournaments, but the San Gabriel Badminton Club (a 24 hours club) is ~25miles north of Long Beach. It has 10 courts and cost $7 per day.

You can play open gym during the week days in CSULB (Califorina State University, Long Beach). I'm not sure what are the hours, but you should be able to find out through this link:

Or you can go to OCBC (Orange County Badminton Club)...where they had the US Open:

CSULB is closed for the summer. The last day was August 7, 2003. Don't know when it will re-open.
