Where Stars and Heroes Share the Field. The Verve Celebrity Softball Classic is America’s largest celebrity-driven charity softball event, uniting professional athletes, entertainment figures, veterans, and first responders on a national stage. What started as a single game has grown into a movement — a night where the people we cheer for stand shoulder to shoulder with the people who keep us safe. Join us September 12, 2026 at Riders Field for an unforgettable evening of competition, community, and cause.
The Verve Celebrity Softball Classic operates as a multi-charity fundraising platform wherein each participating nonprofit organization raises funds through its own donor and sponsor networks and retains 100% of funds raised. To access the full benefits of participation—including event weekend access, celebrity engagement, sponsor recognition, and hospitality experiences—each charity must meet a minimum fundraising threshold of $10,000. The platform is structured to enable organizations to utilize the event as their own donor appreciation and fundraising initiative, while benefiting from national visibility, corporate alignment, and access to a veteran- and celebrity-driven environment that enhances stewardship, relationship cultivation, and long-term development outcomes.
In 2026, we mark the 25th Anniversary of 9/11 with a patriotic, high-impact charity game built to honor heroes, unite communities, and support veteran, first responder, and family-focused nonprofits. Founded in Texas and now in its 12th year of impact and celebration, the Classic has become one of the country’s most meaningful charity sporting events — proof that a single night can change lives well beyond the final out.
The Classic is more than nine innings. Step inside Riders Field and enjoy the Dave & Buster’s Fan Fest — arcade games, interactive booths, and contests for all ages. VIPs and sponsors get on-field pregame access, and the night caps off with fireworks, giveaways, and photo ops you won’t find anywhere else.
