Join Us for the Worlds
June 1, 2022

The pathway to the 2022 World Championships in Las Vegas is paved with hard work, fun, sportsmanship and several upcoming TOC tournaments.
SSUSA officials confirmed that the 2022 World Championships will be returning to Las Vegas for the 9th year. SSUSA, which has run major tournaments in Las Vegas for the past two decades, has already lined up numerous fields, host hotels, and sponsorships for Sept. 15 through Oct. 2.
Last year’s 2021 World Championships was record breaking with 650 teams representing 40 states, Guam and two Canadian provinces. The championship took 15 days for 2,103 games across 35 divisions on nine softball complexes.
Officials are expecting an even bigger turnout for this year’s World Championships as the country eases up Covid-19 restrictions and more people are ready to return from quarantine.
To join the fun this September in Las Vegas, consider playing in these upcoming TOC Qualifers:
