The EDL (European Duel League) online competition is still going on today and you can still sign up on this site: https://q2scene.com/edl/
You also don't need to own the full Quake2 game, as the multiplayer part of the game is free. All you need is the Quake2 Demo + the official 3.20 patch.
If you don't want to search for all these files, custom maps and paks, here is a link to a Quake2 Starter-Pack that has all of those things in one installer:

Here is the short description: "Quake II Starter is a free, standalone Quake II installer for Windows that uses the freely available 3.14 demo, 3.20 point release and the multiplayer-focused Q2PRO client to create a functional setup that's capable of playing online."
EDIT: If you want the pak file, here is an older version of it:
