General Information for Adult Softball Leagues
The Parks and Recreation Department is pleased to offer Adult Softball Leagues at our three Sports Complexes, Desert West, Papago and Rose Mofford. To participate, all players must already be part of a team. New teams must first complete and submit the online Adult Softball Team Classification Form before general registration. Any team that did not play in the previous season must fill out the form.
Adult leagues play four seasons a year:
Winter - January through March
Spring - March through June
Summer - July through September
Fall - September through November

- Current Softball Schedules and Standings
General seasonal league registration is conducted through our on-line registration system in the month preceding the start of the season. The on-line system contains exact play dates, current openings and details on league structure.
League Format - Double-round-robin league play with a post season single-elimination tournament. These eight team leagues play a double-header schedule. There are four game times per night with no new inning started after 55 minutes of accelerated play (each batter starts with a one and one count).
League Fees - The team entry fees provide for direct recovery of costs associated with umpires, softballs, awards and field usage, along with a surcharge which helps offset some of the city’s costs of operating the program. Current entry fee is $450 per team.
Park Rules: - All participants please be advised before heading to the Softball Complexes
