World's Largest Softball Tournament

The tournament was first played in 1970 with a new concept being introduced to the area, round-robin play, and therefore was first called the Richmond Round-Robin.   The tournament grew through the years and the players began referring to the event as the World's Largest Softball Tournament, which at one time reached 424 teams from eighteen states.

The tournament now is much smaller in the number of  teams but still offers the largest number of games with its eight game format and each year draws teams from ten or more states, which makes it one of the largest in this category.   Other unique features in the tournament include: all teams advance from bracket play to the playoffs, no team is eliminated until it loses its last game, players are allowed to hit the ball over the fence and not be called out, and teams handicap themselves rather than have someone else classify them which insures fair and competitive play.
