Adult S~orts Adult Softball Leagues were conducted at the Dublin Sports Grounds beginning June 27, 1990 and concluding September 11, 1990. The Summer season was preceded by an extremely successful Spring season, the first season the City of Dublin has been involved in the sponsorship of adult softball leagues. A total of "72" teams participated in the Summer league in the following divisions; Coed "C", Coed "D", Men's C-1, Men's C-2, Men's D-1, Men's D-2, and Men's D-Open.

In addition to the aforementioned Summer league, a Summer-Fall Business League was offered. The Business League differed from the regular league in that it was designed for business teams and games were played at 5:20pm.

As in the past, Youth Swim Lessons were by far the most popular and highly demanded classes. The opening of additional evening classes during this past Summer helped to ease the demand, however staff will continue to explore means of providing additional classes. The Junior Lifeguard Proqram which was new for the Dublin Swim Center this past year, proved to be very successful and popular. The program offered teens ages 13-15 the opportunity to participate in training and to then be hired to assist instructors and lifeguards on a volunteer basis durinq the Summer. The youths also participated in a Bay Area Junior Lifeguard Competition and placed fourth in the event. Additionally, the Recreation Department also sponsored a Competitive Swim Team once again this Summer. In only it's second season, the Dublin Swim Team grew from "32" participants last year to "52" participants. The City also hosted the Tri-Valley Swim League Championship Meet on August 4 at the Dublin Swirn Center and attracted a crowd of nearly /12,500" to the highly successful event. Private paol rentals dropped to only four this past Summer and was mainly due to lack of availability. As an alternative, a"Birthday Party" program was established to allow participants to conduct smaller scale celebrations during regular recreational swim hours. The program proved to be very popular with "14" parties scheduled (approximately one per week) during the course of the Summer. Attached in Exhibit A is a Registration Analysis for the instructional classes offered at the Dublin Swim Center.
