This year’s “Smoky” will feature the top-ranked teams in the United States. Comparable to football’s Super Bowl, basketball’s Final Four, and baseball’s World Series, the Smoky Mountain Classic is considered the premier softball tournament in the country. The tournament is sponsored by Louisville Slugger, The Daily Times, Blount Partnership, Red Athlete and DeMarini.
To kick-off the tournament, join us for the Homerun Derby on Thursday prior to the tournament at Sandy Springs Park beginning at 5:30 PM. Games begin at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, and 8:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. See "Map to Parks" on the right for locations and addresses. Participating teams and brackets will be available approximately 1 week prior to the event.
For past events, check out our SMC Tournament Records and SMC Tournament History.
