Cincinnati, OH – The Schott Classic Wiffle® Ball Tournament Committee is excited to announce Cincy Light, Cincinnati’s light beer, as the official beer sponsor for the 2024 Schott Classic Weekend. This two-day celebration includes a kids’ tournament on Sunday, July 14th, following the main event on Saturday, July 13th.
The 2024 Schott Classic will take place at William C. Schott Field, welcoming teams and fans for a weekend of competitive play, community spirit, and refreshing beverages. Attendees can enjoy a variety of beverages, including Rhinegeist Brewery’s Cincy Light, Truth, and Bubbles, as well as several flavors of High Noon seltzers.
“Partnering with Rhinegeist to feature Cincy Light at the Schott Classic just made sense,” said Rob Boeing, Spokesman for the Schott Classic Wiffle® Ball Tournament. “Teams have been asking for it, and it’s the perfect beer for a hot summer day of friendly competition. We’re excited to enhance the experience for everyone with this local favorite, from those swinging the yellow bat to those just attending as fans.”
The Schott Classic continues to grow in popularity, attracting players and fans from across the region. This year’s event promises to be the best yet, with 32 teams packing a schedule of group play, a home run derby, and a single elimination tournament on Saturday, culminating in the tournament finals on Wishbone Field. The excitement continues on Sunday with the Jr. Schott Classic kids’ tournament, which has over 200 youth participants.
In addition to the games, the Schott Classic will offer various attractions, including a “Biergarten” where attendees can hang out and enjoy their favorite Rhinegeist beverages. With parking available on a first-come, first-served basis at Schott Field and additional parking at St. Antoninus Church/School, guests are encouraged to arrive early to secure a spot.
