Sports Leagues
CAC of Pittsburgh hosts two great sports leagues:
Each league has the same primary mission: that we all HAVE FUN! Singles of all ability level are encouraged to participate and join in on all the fun and friendship. Our leagues are open to all singles at least 21 years of age.
For those who can't commit to a regular showing in a league, we also offer:
- Weekly Volleyball
- Pick-up Tennis after Monday & Tuesday league play
- Occasional bowling, hiking, biking, and mini-golf events
SOFTBALL LEAGUE
Co-ed Slow-pitch
Sundays, April thru August
At Blawnox Community Park
Interested in summer socializing, exercise, and some fun? We have just
the thing for you! Each year, CAC organizes a spring-summer co-ed softball
league consisting of 7 or 8 teams. Our league attracts many singles, including
those outside CAC. All singles 21 and over are invited to participate.
The league is focused on fun. People of all skill levels are encouraged to join, even those who have never played before. ALL players qualify for league play regardless of softball ability, and if you show up for your game on time, you are guaranteed to play a minimum of four innings.
After each game, we gather at a local bar/restaurant where we talk, eat, and have some post-game fun. The season is followed by our annual sports picnic in September where league players gather to celebrate a successful season and are presented with the season's awards.
COST: $40 for CAC members, $45 for alumni, and $50 for non-members (non-refundable, once assigned to a team in mid-March). Includes a team shirt and September picnic.
Early-bird discount! For application and payment postmarked by February 22: CAC Member - $35; CAC Alumni - $40; non-CAC Member - $45.
New player special! NEW players (NEVER played in this league before) get the CAC Member rate.

Our spring/summer team tennis league features an all doubles format, which allows players of all skill levels to participate.

Matches begin promptly at 7:30, and all players must arrive by 7:40 in order to play in the match (this will be strictly enforced), so please allow for enough travel time to get there early.

note price break! Only $13 for CAC members, $18 for non-CAC members,
