Each year, Folds of Honor Tennessee hosts its Rock ’N Jock Celebrity Softball Game, bringing together the hottest acts in country music, comedy and pop culture for a heated competition with a great cause. This year, the event will return to Nashville’s First Horizon Park, home to the Nashville Sounds team, on Monday, June 2nd at 6:30 pm CST.
Folds of Honor announces its initial star-studded lineup for the 2025 game, which includes country artists Riley Green, Hardy, Justin Moore, Tyler Hubbard and RaeLynn; four-time Olympic medalist Shawn Johnson and her husband, former NFL athlete Andrew East; comedians John Crist, Danae Hays and Jeff Dye; and 12-time NCAA All-American swimmer Riley Gaines. Additional participants for the most patriotic game in America will be announced at a later date. Additionally, Grammy Award-winning country artist Lee Greenwood is set to perform his iconic hit “God Bless The USA” during the Seventh Inning Stretch.
Celebrity players will be divided into two teams — Team Military and Team First Responders — and fans can have a chance to support their choice of team via the Rock ‘N Jock Challenge via a donation.
Tickets for the event start at $20 plus taxes and fees, and are on-sale now.
With the support of sponsors including Black Rifle Coffee Company, proceeds from the Rock ’N Jock Celebrity Softball Game will benefit Folds of Honor, a leading non-profit organization that provides educational scholarships to the children and spouses of America’s fallen or disabled military service members and first responders.
Additionally, Folds of Honor will honor the 250th anniversary of the military branches — Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard — during the game. It’s part of the Marine Corps’ Marine Week Nashville happening throughout the week of June 2nd, which will feature engagements throughout the community to celebrate and commemorate 250 years of service to our nation with the great people of Nashville.
Since its inception in 2007 by Lt Col Dan Rooney, the organization has awarded nearly 62,000 educational scholarships, totaling approximately $290 million in educational impact. 2,981 of those scholarships have been granted to students in Tennessee, totaling nearly $14 million in educational impact in the community.
