The Arlington Heights Park District offers a variety of softball leagues to accommodate players and teams with a range of softball experience. Although we offer both recreational to competitive leagues, all leagues are primarily for FUN.

AHPD softball leagues play at the Melas Park Sports Complex: a facility with four lit ball diamonds with synthetic turf infields,a concessions stand, a playground, and ample parking. Register as a team, not as an individual player. If you are a player looking to join a team, please contact Cari Boyle, Recreation Supervisor, at cboyle@ahpd.org.

Fall leagues - registration is open!

Fall leagues begin the week of Monday, August 19th. The season consists of 10 games plus playoffs and ends the week of October 14th. Most nights, teams will play two games. Registration will remain open through Friday, August 9th.

One player registers the entire team, and all fees must be paid, in full, at the time of registration. Blank rosters will be distributed at the captain's pre-season meeting (you may also download one from this page). A new team roster/waiver must be completed, signed, and submitted to staff at the Melas Park concessions stand before the start of your first game EVERY season. You may add players to your roster, within the limits of your league, until the start of your third game.

Two ways to register

• In person at a local community center or the Administration Center. For facility information, including locations and hours of operation, click here.

If your team has a sponsor

• Teams must pay in full at the time of registration. If your sponsorship check does not cover your entire league fee, you must pay the balance when you register. A sponsorship check is not a deposit.
• If you will not have your sponsorship check before the deadline, you must pay in full when you register, and we will reimburse you once we receive your sponsorship check.It may take 5-10 business days to receive your reimbursement.

We do not add teams to leagues without payment in full or accept partial payment to hold a spot in a league.
