Greenville is a growing and thriving university-medical city, and hub of educational, economic, and cultural activity in Eastern North Carolina. Not to mention a sports loving city! 

Our entire Greenville-Pitt County community welcomes and supports the many sporting events that we host throughout the year, and we work hard to help sports travelers feel at home and play it up!

Greenville is the new home of the Little League Softball World Series, and in 2021, we hosted this tournament for the first time at Stallings Stadium at Elm Street Park in the heart of Greenville. Our Greenville team pulled together to ensure these young athletes and their families had fun on and off the field! 

Play Greenville, NC Sports’ established partnerships with East Carolina University, the Greenville Recreation & Parks Department, and the Greenville Convention Center Campus allow us to host events at state-of-the-art D1 fields and facilities, utilize Greenville’s 25-plus parks and recreation facilities, access 91,000 square feet of flexible indoor event space, and more!

After the competition is over, sports travelers can explore Greenville-Pitt County! From our vibrant Uptown Greenville District with its local restaurants, breweries, museums, art galleries, and more, to finding relaxation at the Greenville Town Common on the Tar River, Greenville Greenway, River Park North and Wildwood Park. Venture further into Pitt County and find our legendary Eastern North Carolina barbecue joints, local farms and creameries, and much more!
