World Wiffle Ball Championship

Looks like this event has already taken place.

Sat, Jul 15 – Sun, Jul 16, 2023

145th & Spaulding Avenue, Midlothian, IL 60445

In the summer of 1980, 8 teams competed for the world’s first Wiffle Ball title in Mishawaka, Indiana. Since then, this once tiny tournament has grown up to become the oldest, largest & most prestigious plastic bat & ball event on the globe.

The World Wiffle Ball Championship features five-person teams playing with perforated plastic Wiffle Balls, on miniature ball fields with six-foot home run fences.
