Men in Winnipeg can join adult rec leagues in hockey, ultimate, soccer, volleyball, slo-pitch, curling and basketball, and Running Room run clubs meet every week for free. The main differences are whether a league takes players on their own, which night it plays and what it costs.

We run one of the basketball leagues on the list. DBA, the Disciples Basketball Association, is a men's basketball league in Winnipeg, and five of the eight Fall 2026 teams played in earlier DBA seasons.

Each row is one of the adult sports leagues in Winnipeg or a running club, with its sign-up rules, night and published price.

The Winnipeg Rec Hockey League takes teams and players on their own

The Winnipeg Rec Hockey League takes registrations from teams, free agents and players on their own, and its site lists Winter 2026/2027 team registration. Team fees start at $8,795 plus GST for 24 games with no playoffs. Standard packages, from $9,245 plus GST, get 26 guaranteed 75-minute games.

The average start time is about 9:15 pm. Garden City Community Centre lists the league and the Winnipeg Central Hockey League as hosted leagues. Robert A. Steen Community Centre also runs adult shinny on Sunday or Monday evenings, and a 10-game season is $75, given as a donation toward ice upkeep.

MODS runs indoor ultimate through the fall and winter

MODS, the Manitoba Organization of Disc Sports, runs Indoor Mixed for teams only, with rosters of up to 20. Its Indoor Male Matching league takes teams in Tiers 1 and 2, and players on their own in Tier 2. MODS hasn't published its 2026‑27 league prices, so check the MODS adult page before you register.

The Manitoba Major Soccer League registers full teams only

The Manitoba Major Soccer League has over 120 outdoor and indoor teams and over 2,000 players, in nine men's divisions and one coed division. It registers on a team basis only, and players without a team can add themselves to its Players Looking For Teams list.

The outdoor season starts in late April or early May, and the indoor season starts in mid-October. Each player pays the Manitoba Soccer Association fee of $68. The league's own team fee isn't published.

Vision Elite Academy runs a coed adult league on Sundays from 4 pm to 10 pm, with eight tiers from advanced to novice. Players who sign up alone are placed on teams where possible, at the pre-season open houses.

A team pays $885, which is $785 plus a $100 retainer. The Friday drop-in runs from 6 pm to 10 pm and costs $10 cash.

Fort Garry 6&4 Slopitch plays coed evening doubleheaders

Fort Garry 6&4 Slopitch calls itself a "coed softball league for adults of all skill levels". Each night is a doubleheader of six innings a game, and the diamonds are set up by 6:30 pm. The league hasn't published its 2026 registration fee.

Fort Rouge Curling Club runs weeknight and weekend leagues

Fort Rouge Curling Club has night leagues from Monday to Thursday, plus mixed leagues on Friday and Saturday nights. Registration for 2026‑2027 is through Curling IO.

A directory listing shows $132.13 a season for the Wednesday and Friday stick leagues and $168.70 for the Saturday morning league. Those prices are for daytime leagues, not the club's night leagues, and the listing gives no year.

Running Room run clubs are free and need no team

Running Room run clubs are free drop-in groups with no sign-up. They meet Wednesdays from 6 pm to 7:15 pm at Running Room stores, and Sundays at 9 am at select stores, including Kenaston at 1875 Grant Ave.

The Manitoba Runners' Association lists other clubs that meet each week:

Transcona Trail Trekkers, Wednesdays at 6:15 pm and Sundays at 9:15 am
Roblin Park, Wednesdays at 6:30 pm and Saturdays at 9 am, with no registration and no membership
Winnipeg Frontrunners, Saturdays at 9 am at The Forks, except in winter

DBA games are on Monday and Friday nights

In Fall 2026, DBA games are on Mondays at Greendell Community Centre and on Fridays at Valour Community Centre (Isaac Brock site). You can register with a team, or sign up alone as a free agent. DBA games are streamed live on our YouTube channel.

Five of the eight Fall 2026 teams played in earlier seasons, and the 2022 founding post described a league "meant for bringing men together as a community". If you want to meet people in Winnipeg away from game nights, the league also runs events outside basketball. This fall's media day was October 9 at Archwood Community Centre, with team photos and highlight videos.

JAM Sports also runs coed basketball in Winnipeg, with 3v3 on Tuesdays at Greendell Community Centre and 5v5 on Wednesdays at Weston Memorial Community Centre. For other places to play, see where to play basketball in Winnipeg.
