REDWOOD CITY ADULT SPORTS
Come join the Adult Sports “HUB” on the Peninsula. We offer leagues in Softball and Volleyball, with many different skill levels to choose from. Team Managers who would like to put a team into the Redwood City Leagues should contact Eric Newby at (650) 780-7317, or email at enewby@redwoodcity.org. Manager packets will be available on the website one month before each season is to begin. Our sports league web site is www.quickscores.com/redwoodcity. You will find schedules, standings and game scores.
Softball Leagues
Our 2023 Softball Program continues to lead the Peninsula by offering the widest variety of softball divisions around. Men’s Slow Pitch, Women’s Slow Pitch, and also Coed Slow Pitch will be offered this year. We work hard to provide the best Softball Fields in the area, including our:
Field Turf Softball Diamonds
We will “PLAY” when others will rain out. Redwood City’s weather was voted “Climate Best by Government Test”, so you’ll be playing year round in T-shirts and shorts. Whether you have a beginner team, or a top level D team, you’ll find a league that will fit your level of play. Come play with the best, and experience why we have over 75 teams playing softball in Redwood City each season!

Coed Volleyball Leagues
Our Adult Coed Volleyball league continues to dominate as well. We have 2 full sized volleyball courts, with quality Referees and scorekeepers. These leagues are a great way to meet new people, get exercise, and have some fun along the way. Game times are 7pm, 8pm and 9pm. Leagues will fill up quickly.
