When adult softball is played in the Portland area
Adult rec softball usually runs spring, summer and fall seasons on weeknights, year round in warm climates.
Portland has rainy falls and winters with drier summers. Fall and winter rain soak grass fields, so leagues often rely on turf fields and plan for closures. Drier summers are good for camps and tournaments.
