In January of 2020, the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre RailRiders officially announced John Adams as the team's new president.

Adams is a native of Renovo, Pennsylvania, and returns his baseball roots with this new role.

Adams graduated from Lock Haven University in 2001 and began work in Minor League Baseball in 2002 with the Trenton Thunder as a Production and Promotions Manager.

He was the Cleveland Gladiators Director of Marketing for one season and became that franchise's General Manager in 2008, helping reboot the entire operation.

In August 2010, Adams was appointed as the Philadelphia Soul's Team President. During his tenure, the Soul became a model franchise in the AFL, growing cash revenues by nearly 80% through improved ticket sales strategies, creating new revenue streams and cultivating productive relationships within the community. The Soul had a six-year stint within the AFL as one of the top two revenue-producing organizations, including being the top franchise overall three times.

His staff was twice named the best in the AFL during his tenure and he personally made several "Top 40 under 40" lists in the region. Additionally, Adams was the 2015 AFL Executive of the Year.

After successfully integrating this plan and leading two top-grossing organizations, Adams was named as the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Arena Football League; a role he held through November of last year. During that time, he led the restructure and transformation of the league to a single entity model, implementing a change management process for both the AFL Corporate Headquarters, its teams and the relationship between the two.
