Toledo Sport and Social Club - Spirit of Play

The Toledo Sport and Social Club exists to provide adults with the ability to continue to compete in lifelong recreational play. We realize there will be intense moments during games, in particular towards the end of games or when a player makes a mistake in judgment, but we hope the TSSC Spirit of Play will always remain.

The TSSC encourages players to play with a "Fun First, Win Second" attitude. Our leagues are about getting out and having a good time with old friends and new! The TSSC believes that encouraging good sports behavior is why players join and will remain in our leagues. Playing with TSSC Spirit provides a non-threatening, fun environment for all levels of players. Good sporting behavior: behavioral tendencies of a person who can take loss or defeat without complaint, and victory without gloating, and who treats all opponents with fairness, generosity, courtesy and respect. This is the attitude we encourage all players to display on and off the playing field!

Competition Levels Defined

The "Majors" is for teams/individuals that have advanced athletic skills and love to socialize. At this level you can expect contract negotiations, holdouts over guaranteed salary, and busted noses occurring in every game…Okay, just kidding, but the players who want some good competition and care what the final score of the game is should choose to play in this level of league.

The "Minors" is for teams/individuals that have intermediate athletic skills and love to socialize. At this level you probably still care who wins the game but you aren’t going to lose sleep over the outcome. This is probably the most commonly chosen level of play because it is really meant to be the best combination of competition and fun.

The "For Fun" is for teams/individuals that have basic athletic skills and love to socialize. At this level you and your team are out there completely just to have a good time. Win or lose, your team just enjoys playing games and might very well be there just to get to the bar afterwards. Teams in this league are going to make sure they have fun no matter what and they might even lost track of the score because it really is just about playing the game.
