INDIVIDUAL PLAYERS (FREE AGENTS)
The City of Chandler Parks and Recreation Adult Sports program receives several inquiries from individual players (Free Agents) like you on a daily basis. Unfortunately, the City of Chandler only processes team registrations for the Adult Sports Softball, Volleyball, Flag Football and Basketball leagues. The Adult Sports Coordinator has compiled a list of options that will assist you in trying to get on a team. Listed below are those four options:
1) Free Agents List (Click Here - PDF) – The Free Agents List is a compilation of names of players that are in a similar situation as yours, that are also trying to get on a team. To sign up for the Free Agents List, please submit your contact information (first and last name, phone number and email address), to the Adult Sports Coordinator. See below for Adult Sports Coordinator contact information. Feel free to review our current Free Agents List. Click on the “Click Here” link listed above.
The Adult Sports program does not charge a fee to be a Free Agent, so it is at the discretion of the coach that adds you to their team, to charge you a fee to play on his/her team. The Free Agents List is maintained by the Adult Sports Coordinator and will be distributed to coaches who are looking for additional players. Please be advised that the contact information you provide will be added to the Free Agents List, which is posted on the Adult Sports web page as public information. Due to the size of this list, you’re chances are greatly increased if you follow all of the options listed in this section.
2) Coach’s Meeting – Attend the coaches meeting for the sport you desire. Coaches meetings are held a few weeks prior to the season and there may be coaches at these meetings that are interested in adding individual players to their roster. It is at the discretion of the coach to add you their roster as a permanent or substitute player. Coaches may also refer to the Free Agents List to add players to their team.
3) Introduce Yourself - Your best chance of participating in our leagues as an individual player is to go to the gym or ball field on the day/night you prefer introduce yourself to the coach of any of the teams that are getting ready to play. You can also speak with the gym or field site supervisor and they will be able to answer any questions you may have. See below for league “Game Schedules” to get familiar with what leagues we have to offer and their days and times.
4) Form Your Own Team - Individual players can also form a new team with friends or coworkers and submit a roster for the sport you are interested in. Or you may contact other players on the Free Agents List and try to organize your own team from the list. This option has been successful in the past for several teams.
PLEASE NOTE: The Adult Sports league Rules & Regulations do not allow a coach to legally add a player to their roster after the first week of games in a season. So it is important to try to get on a team roster prior to the first game. For all important dates and information for the sport you desire, please review the 2010 Master Calendar – Registration Dates and Information listed above in purple.
