If baseball is your game, then you'll have plenty to watch with the Cape Cod Baseball League, probably the best nonprofessional baseball league in the country, playing nightly from mid-June to mid-August. The Falmouth Road Race, along with other topnotch road races attract runners from around the world. Each June Willowbend Country Club in Mashpee hosts a children's charity golf Pro-Am which draws professional celebrities from golf, football, basketball, and hockey. Not to be outdone, the Cape Cod Crusaders bring professional soccer to the peninsula throughout the summer. In this chapter we have listed some of the major spectator sports events in the area. For exact schedules and dates, check the sports section of the Cape Cod Times.

If you're in the mood to play yourself rather than watch someone else, we'll let you know where you can ride a horse, ice skate, or skateboard. If you're up for a game of tennis or bowling, we'll point you in the right direction. And if you'd just like to work out, we tell you all about fitness centers too. For those of you who prefer to play in the ocean or spend your time on the links, we offers separate chapters on Boating and Watersports and on Golf.
