Turf Classic 2022
Welcome to the Turf Classic!
Turf Classic Teams,
On behalf of Kings Hammer Soccer Club, we would like to welcome you to Cincinnati for the 2022 Turf Classic. We are excited to kick off the spring season with our March Turf events and hope you are excited to compete! The Turf Classic provides participating teams with an opportunity to play some early spring games against great competition without the fear of games getting cancelled due to weather. This year, we will host nearly 500 teams from 90 clubs across the country over the two-weekend event all on local turf facilities. The main goal of the Turf Classic is to provide teams with good early-season competition at quality facilities to help you prepare for the spring season. We hope you have a chance to enjoy all that Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky have to offer while you are here.
Thank you for choosing the Turf Classic. We are excited about the great competition this year and look forward to hosting your team in Cincinnati!
