Purchase Tickets

ST. LOUIS – Saint Louis University will host the 2026 Atlantic 10 Conference Softball Championship Wednesday through Saturday, May 6-9, at the Billiken Sports Center on the SLU campus.
 
The tournament is a six-team, double-elimination event, the winner of which receives the A-10's automatic bid to the NCAA Championship. Saint Louis captured the 2025 A-10 Championship title – its first – in Washington, D.C., recovering from a loss in its tournament opener to reel off four straight victories.
 
Three games, with start times of noon, 2:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. Central, are scheduled for each of the first three days of the tournament. Championship Saturday gets underway at noon; if a second game is needed, it will begin approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first game.
 
The tournament bracket will be released following the conclusion of Sunday's final regular-season games.
 
Tickets may be purchased online (see the link above) or at the gate. All-Session tickets are $24.00 and single-day tickets are $10.00, with a discounted price of $5.00 per person for groups of 10 or more. Current Atlantic 10 Conference students with school ID are admitted free, as are children under age 3. All seating is general admission.
 
The Billiken Sports Center is located on the eastern edge of SLU's Midtown campus, just off Compton Avenue between Market and Olive. Parking will be available in the Olive-Compton garage, with the field a short walk away.
