Play ball, Madison. With registration for fall leagues starting up, now’s a good time to dust off that old sporting equipment, stretch out those social skills, and tee up a season with Madison School & Community Recreation.

Get to know your team

Better known as MSCR, the group has been organizing + promoting year-round recreation for almost 100 years in the 608. And while it does a lot for MMSD, it does just as much for the oldest children in Madison (the adults.) MSCR offers four adult sports leagues + hosts a series of other non-league sports and activities.

Two ways to play

Madisonians can opt to register with a team or choose to sign up as a free agent.

Know a group ready to hit the ground running? Register with family, friends, or coworkers to join a 10-week league playing weeknight matches at a recurring time.

For anyone looking to test the waters, free agency is a great way to stay active with less commitment to a team. Why does it matter if I’m committed? If your team doesn’t have enough players to take the field (or court, or diamond) on any given night, they forfeit.
