The NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville is a great place to catch some of the nation’s best teams battling to remain in the running for a coveted
Women’s College World Series
spot. Whichever one wins this competition will be one best-of-three series win away from the most prestigious event in college softball.

Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium
will likely be impressed by how engaged and knowledgeable Gator softball fans are.

Whether or not the NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville games will take place depends on Florida being awarded hosting rights on the NCAA Selection Show, which will be broadcast May 10 after the regional season ends. If that does occur, this event will be held May 14-17. Two games will be played on the first day, three on the second and one or two on the third. Every team is guaranteed two games while the maximum number of times that one team can play is five.
Although
Florida
is a powerhouse today, it took a few years for the Gators to start rolling. The program got its start in 1997 and hosted its first NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville six years later. Oklahoma claimed that inaugural event, defeating Oregon State, 7-2, in the title game. After the Gators hit the road for a 150-mile trip to the
NCAA Softball Regionals Tallahassee
in 2004, they’ve hosted this stage of the NCAA Softball Tournament in Gainesville ever since.
The team that prevails at the NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville games will be one of 16 squads that still has a chance of winning the national championship. After claiming honors on the University of Florida campus, it’ll play another of those remaining schools in a best-of-three series the following weekend at one of the participating teams' home stadium. The winner of that will advance to the
Women’s College World Series
in Oklahoma City.
Attending the NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville will provide you with an exciting experience in a beautiful facility. Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium, which was renovated in time for the 2019 season, now offers more shaded areas for fans than ever before, a benefit that is much appreciated as it can get hot for NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville ticket holders taking in the action.
You can get your tickets to the NCAA Softball Regionals Gainesville and a myriad of other sporting events at StubHub where you're covered by the FanProtect guarantee.
