Adult Athletic Tournaments

The Michigan Recreation & Park Association’s Athletic Committee oversees several adult athletic tournaments throughout the year. MRPA member communities and college intramural teams are invited to participate in the tournaments as well, in addition to teams organized through local park and recreation agencies.
