Houston Parks and Recreation

The Houston Parks and Recreation Department (HPARD) operates recreational softball programming for the City of Houston. Its Adult Sports section offers year-round adult softball leagues for participants aged 18 and over, with men’s and co-ed divisions and five-week doubleheader seasons played Monday to Friday. The 2026 programme scheduled spring, summer and fall competition at Memorial, Cullen, Cleveland, Hermann Brown, Alief and Irvington parks, using team registration through the City’s ActiveNet service. HPARD’s published adult-sports information also provides USA Softball and kickball officials’ certification training. For younger participants, the department runs free recreational opportunities through community centres and works with the Houston Astros on the Astros Jr. RBI programme for T-ball, baseball and girls’ softball for ages 4 to 18. It additionally offers baseball and softball skills activities and clinics with community partners. This record concerns Houston’s municipal recreational-programme operator rather than an independent softball governing body.
