Brackets for many of the summer tournaments are now posted on the respective tournament pages. Our tournament entry fee is $600 for a four game round robin tournament. The schedule for 2024 is very similar to 2023. Once again we will host the men's Class B State Finals which will be the last weekend in July and they won't sign up for that until late June / early July.

We typically play 5 team round robin tournaments with a four game guarantee. This has worked out well for teams traveling into the area so they can plan their weekend stay in Petoskey. Our weekend schedule typically has two games Friday night starting at 7:00 pm, resume Saturday morning at 9 or 10 am and play all day with two or three round robin games on Sunday starting at 8 am followed by the one game championship starting about 11:30 / 12:00 noon. You can find brackets with schedules on this website so you can follow your favorite teams. Brackets will be available several weeks prior to the start of each tournament. You can also follow the games through our facebook page, D21 Softball at Petoskey, which also serves as our archives if you want to go back in time. On the FB page we post game scores and some highlights after each game. Last year we started posting the picture of the completed scorebook so players could track their stats and follow the top performers. Hope to see you all at the waterfront in Petoskey which is one of the premier parks in the world with Lake Michigan's Little Traverse Bay behind left field and center field fences providing some of the most incredible sunsets you will ever see!

Many thanks to our corporate sponsors for the summer softball series - without your support we would not be able to offer these tournaments. Corporate Sponsors for 2024 include: Priority Mortgage from Grand Rapids, DJS Systems from Homer, BASES from Charlevoix and the Petoskey Visitors and Convention Bureau through PetoskeyArea.com. We also had support from Corktown Pizza Company from Petoskey who sponsored our pizza for homeruns program in 2023 as well as Trophy Case who assisted us with our award packages. We also want to welcome our newest sponsor this year, Blarney Castle Oil Company and EZ Mart Convenience Stores. Learn more about all of our corporate sponsors by clicking on their link at the bottom of each page.

Plan on coming to Petoskey for the week and enjoy some league games with local men's teams playing on Tuesday and Thursday nights and local women's teams playing on Monday and Wednesday nights from mid-June into late July. There are lots of wonderful things to do indoors and outdoors in the area. For lodging information and more while attending D21 Softball events, please visit www.PetoskeyArea.com.
