Founded in 1992, Players Sport & Social Group has grown into serving over 68,000 Players each year. Players Sport & Social Group offers something for individuals & teams of all skill levels all across the Chicago area.

 

We invite you to check out our leagues for Basketball, Cornhole, Bowling, Beach & Indoor Volleyball, Dodgeball, Football, Kickball, Pickleball, Soccer, Softball and more as there is truly something for everyone. All of our leagues are first come, first serve. We have an early bird deadline where all teams can receive a price break if registered up by that certain date. Try to sign up as early as possible because many leagues sell out long before the early bird deadline.

 

We also host lots of great tournaments and social events throughout the year, including The Beach Slap Volleyball Tournament & Party, The BIG DIG Beach Volleyball Tournament, Ski & See Europe, The Lazy Run 0.5k, Bar Olympics, and Adult Field Days and more. If you have any questions, please reference our FAQ page, or feel free to contact us at play@playerssports.net or call our office at (773) 528-1999.

Registration as a Team

Registration for a whole team is best done through our website by clicking the TEAM option next to the league that you want. Teams registering prior to the early bird date can use Team Payer to make a deposit on a league and reserve their team a spot. After the deposit has been secured the captain may send payment requests to teammates. Many of our bar sponsors offer opportunities to help out with league expenses, so be sure to contact our sponsors about working together for a season.

 

Registration as an Individual

Registration as an individual is done through the website by clicking the INDIVIDUAL option next to the league that you want. A way to guarantee that you'll be placed on the same team as your friends if you don't have a full roster is to sign up together. If you sign up separately, you may also place teammate requests during registration and we will group indy registrations that have requested each other as teammates.

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!!



KATHRYN O.   

Great people and great vibes. If you're looking to get out and meet some people while having fun then Players Sports is for you. There are leagues and tournaments for a bunch of different sports. They run them for all skill levels and you get cool shirts if you win. Also a lot of free promos - they give out a lot of energy drinks and other stuff. Overall, very fun and very friendly environment.

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.

I have been playing with Players Sports Volleyball leagues and tournaments for years now and love it! They always provide a competitive atmosphere while displaying sportsmanship throughout the entire time. I have signed up with teams, I have also signed up by myself and been placed on a team which have turned into friendships and continued participation. I highly recommend Players Sport Social for competitive volleyball and all sports!
