I’ve been playing in Players volleyball tournaments and leagues for the last 10 years and am always so impressed. They are beyond organized with their tournaments, are super responsive and attract great competition. 11/10 stars!!
There are so many options of different sport types, number of players, skill level, and available locations on Players it’s always easy to find an activity that fits my desires. The league is communicative and supportive, and the facilities are always nice. I will continue using Players to play rec sports and as a great way to meet new people and socialize!
Players is awesome for adult sports leagues! Something for everyone and always a great time! Always meeting new people and joining in on different events.
Love the leagues, love the tourneys, always ran well and good competition!
