Chris Madeiros Wiffle Ball event set for July 25 in Marshfield
Teams heading to Marshfield for the Chris Madeiros Wiffle Ball tournament have a place, a time and a deadline to watch: the field is set for 900 Ferry St., check-in and registration begin at 9:30, and organizers said registration forms will be available next week.
The event is scheduled for July 25, 2026, and the latest save-the-date message keeps it in the early promotional stage even as the basics are already on the table. That matters for anyone trying to lock in a roster, because a fixed address in Marshfield and a 9:30 start window leave little ambiguity about how the day will run once teams arrive.
The tournament’s name gives it more weight than a standard summer bracket. Chris Madeiros was remembered in a 2015 profile as a loving husband, a proud father of four and a man devoted to his family; he died at 41 and was described then as someone who is dearly missed. That history is why the annual event reads like a community memorial as much as a competition, with his name tied to a tournament that keeps returning to the calendar.
The structure also fits the way serious Wiffle Ball events are staged elsewhere. The Rhode Island Wiffle Ball League runs a dedicated event-details page for its Little Rhody Wiffle Ball Classic, with separate links for registration, rules, volunteer work and donations. Twinsburg’s World Series of Wiffle Ball goes even bigger, billing itself as the largest Wiffle Ball tournament in the world and setting Aug. 13-16, 2026, as its dates. Other 2026 tournaments, including Fun Fest and Crestwood Recreation & Wellness Center’s double-elimination event, also lean on advance sign-up and fixed dates.
That is the frame for Marshfield now: not a casual backyard run, but a scheduled summer tournament with a confirmed field, a published address and a registration clock already ticking toward July 25. Once the forms go live next week, the event moves from announcement to the part teams care about most, getting in before the bracket fills.
