Find a Rec Sports League in Your Area!

Doesn’t it seem like we were just popping champagne bottles to usher in 2010? It’s hard to believe that we’re nearing the end of January, but that’s just the reality. It also means that we’re quickly approaching registration for spring sports hosted by your local adult rec league or sports and social club. In fact, many leagues have already begun the registration process.

Now is the perfect time for you to get active and join a league. The Sportsvite team makes the entire process very easy - from forming your team to managing your team to finding a league to play in.

Finding a League to Play In

Are you a league organizer that wants to promote your organization on Sportsvite? We make that easy too. Simply visit sportsvite.com/promoteyourleague to learn more and to create your own unique Sportsvite League Profile.

Stay Active: Join a Dodgeball League in Your Area!

The 2004 movie “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story” is credited with a resurgence or creation of dodgeball leagues across the country. Many of us experienced the game as elementary school students (especially when the gym teacher was nursing a mid-week hangover), but it’s a whole new game as an adult. It’s a game that serves many purposes for the adult rec athlete - stress relief, anger management and anaerobic exercise, just to name a few. There’s nothing more exciting than being the last man standing. And there’s nothing more humbling than taking a dodgeball to the back of your head when in full retreat.

Very few parts of the US have been spared Mother Nature’s wrath this winter (perhaps she dated Al Gore in a previous life), so indoor activities are much more tolerable when the mercury dips below 32*. The beauty of Dodgeball is that players come in all shapes and sizes, which isn’t always the case with other indoor games like volleyball and basketball. If someone’s bigger or faster, you still have the ability to take them out of a game by outfoxing them.

Now that I’ve peaked your interest, check out a sampling of Official League Partners that offer dodgeball below. Don’t see a league in your area? Not a problem, simply visit the recently enhanced Sportsvite League Directory to find a league in your neighborhood. Or better yet, start your own league!

What’s your New Year’s Resolution?

New Year’s Eve… the last night of the year. A final night of excessive recession-proof partying, unwarranted food consumption, and any activity you wish to resolve in the new year. To some, the New Year’s Resolution serves as a reminder for people to spend more time with their family, their religious groups, and giving money to charity. To many, however, it’s the annual pivot point in which people decide to throw away their unruly lifestyle for a healthier one. In simpler terms - this means getting in shape and losing weight.

At Sportsvite, we’ve mastered the art of weight loss - it boils down to two simple steps:

1. Diet
2. Exercise

Step 1 seems simple enough. Cut out the junk food and control your portions. Step 2, however, may be a bit tougher. We know… we know how boring it is to run on a treadmill, we know how annoying it is to play pick-up basketball with ex-NBA all-stars. That’s why Sportsvite has made it easier for you to engage in fun activities that will help you achieve your goal of weight loss.

With Sportsvite you can create more fun and SOCIAL workouts by helping you find tennis or racquetball partners, and assisting you in creating soccer and basketball teams. You can always find an active person to join you in a more engaging workout. Additionally, you never have to worry about find people who are too hardcore and competitive, or not hardcore and competitive enough. Sportsvite makes it easy for YOU to find someone who plays the sports that YOU like at YOUR skill level. So for the rest of this week as you’re trying to figure out the proper way to tell yourself to lose weight, just remember two simple steps:

1. Cut out the junk food
2. More Sportsvite!
