Registration open for Brighton Recreation sports leagues in accordance with recent state guidelines, the Brighton Recreation Center is opening up registration for its sports leagues with some modifications to keep players safe.
Below are some of the upcoming leagues people can sign up for:
Adult Softball
Registration for our USSSA leagues are open and will close July 13. Spots may fill up quickly since we
are one of the few cities running a softball league at this time. The cost is $400 for a 10-week season. Our manager’s meeting will be held on July 16, with games starting the following week on July 21, 22, and 23, depending on which night you sign up for. Men’s leagues will be on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, while co-ed leagues will be Tuesdays and Thursdays.  To register, click this link or call the Brighton Recreation Center at 303-655-2200 (please keep in mind that you may need to leave a message).
T-Ball (5-6-year-olds)
Registration is open for our T-ball league and will close on July 6. The cost is $43 per player which
covers the six-week league. Games start on July 17 and will be held on Fridays from 4:30 - 8 p.m.
Practices are held 30 minutes before scheduled games. Players are required to have their own glove and
are encouraged to have their own bat and helmet.  Volunteer coaches will be needed, so please let us know if you are interested when you register.  To register, click this link or call the Brighton Recreation Center at 303-655-2200 (please keep in mind you may need to leave a message).

Spots are limited. The season will run from July 25 through Sept.12 and all games will be played using a modified
