Sports are a big part of Dallas culture, but it’s not all about the big leagues we all know and love. There are also plenty of other low-level sports leagues that offer just as much excitement, especially if you want to get involved yourself.
Dallas TX is home to a vast array of sports leagues. Whether you enjoy the adrenaline fuelled action of dodge ball or the quiet casual nature of bean bag toss, there’s plenty to choose from.
If you’re looking for a bit of a change and feel like exploring some other sporting events, here are a few of the less-popular, yet brilliant leagues in Dallas TX.
Kickball
The adult coed kickball league takes place at Glencoe Park and is ideal if you want to relive your high school gym days and get involved. Registration for an individual is $75, or full team registration is $625. This fee includes 7 regular season games and a playoff by elimination at the end. Best of all, when a season ends, another begins, providing constant year round excitement.
Bean Bag Toss
The Dallas TX bean bag toss league takes place in The Nodding Donkey in Uptown and will provide a night out for 8 weeks in a row. This casual sport isn’t particularly well-known, but it provides an excellent social atmosphere that’s perfect for meeting new people. At a mere $5 per person or $75 per team, it’s nice and cheap; and best of all, there are some decent prizes for the winners.
Pub Games
Jenga, cornhole, darts – pub games provide the perfect social backdrop all year round. Taking place at the Sandbar Cantina and Grill, this doubles tournament is only $5 per person for the entire season. The fee includes all of the equipment, league administration, t-shirt and plenty of special offers at the bar.
Sand Volleyball
When it’s summertime in Dallas TX, there’s no better way to break a sweat than playing a bit of beach volleyball.
