Oldest continuous event in central arkansas The 2021 Busch Softball Classic will be held on July 2-4. It has become a lasting testament to the wonderful sport of softball. The Busch Softball Classic is about to start it’s 42nd year. Founded in 1979 as a fundraiser for a class A team from Arkansas, the Classic had humble beginnings with 32 teams. Now over 2,700 teams from 39 states have participated and the tournament has grown into a softball showcase of fiercely competitive men’s and women’s teams of all classifications from all over the USA! Some of the greatest players, coaches, and sponsors ever known have been a part of this event. Our formula for success has been organization, quality umpires, lots of prizes, and top flight competition. We are proud to be celebrating 42 years of the Busch Softball Classic!
