Georgia Dugout Club’s Lead Off Classic Opens 2025 Season

The Georgia Dugout Club once again helped usher in the high school softball season with its annual Lead Off Classic, a showcase designed to spotlight programs from across the state and officially launch the 2025 Georgia High School Association (GHSA) softball campaign.
This year’s event was billed as a celebration of Georgia’s deep talent pool, offering teams an early-season opportunity to test themselves against top competition in a tournament-style atmosphere. Promoted by the Dugout Club as the true “first pitch” of the GHSA season, the Classic has become a staple on the high school softball calendar and a source of anticipation for players, coaches, and fans alike.
Over the years, the Lead Off Classic has grown into more than just a tournament—it is a gathering point for the state’s softball community. Coaches use it to evaluate their rosters in live-game action, fans treat it as a chance to preview potential championship contenders, and players embrace the excitement of competing in front of energized crowds.
As the season unfolds, the games played during the Lead Off Classic will serve as an early measuring stick for teams chasing region titles, state tournament berths, and championship glory. Even without immediate box scores or attendance reports, the success of the event lies in its ability to generate momentum, foster competition, and highlight the thriving culture of high school softball in Georgia.
The Georgia Dugout Club’s promotion of the 2025 Lead Off Classic underscores the organization’s continued leadership in supporting coaches, athletes, and the sport itself. With another season underway, the Classic has once again fulfilled its mission: bringing Georgia softball together for a powerful and promising start.
