Adamsville Recreation and Parks Department was established as a branch of the City of Adamsville in 1998. The department maintains programs in Football, Cheerleading, Basketball and Soccer. Applications available through City Hall.
The department offers a game for all seasons. Sign-ups for Tackle Football, Cheerleading and Soccer for ages 5-12 begin shortly after school starts in August. As the season winds down in Soccer, Football and Cheerleading, we begin sign-ups for the Jr. Pro Basketball winter season. Sign-ups are in December. Games are played in January and February on Saturdays. Dixie Youth T-ball, Softball and Baseball sign-ups begin in March, with games and All-Star games lasting well into the summer.
The City Park, now called the Buford Pusser Memorial Park, that once was a sandlot and horse barn was established by none other than Legendary Sheriff Buford Pusser and the Adamsville Jaycees in October 1973. Money raised from a concert of top-notch artists that included Gorge Jones and Tammy Wynette began the funding of the City Park. Funding from the concert and grants through the city have built the park. The park consists of a lighted basketball court, lighted tennis courts, playground, with a variety of equipment for kids to enjoy, 4 ball fields, open air pavilion, picnic tables, 4 grills, shade trees and a walking track.
To reserve the Pavilion in the Buford Pusser Memorial Park for a party or event, call the City Hall.
The department helps to maintain several city buildings including City Hall, the Buford Pusser Home & Museum, “The Marty” our Adamsville Community Center, The Senior Citizens Center and the Irving Meek Jr. Memorial Library.
