GRAND CHUTE, WI – There is some good news and some bad news to announce regarding Charity Softball Games that were to be held at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium in 2020. The Donald Driver Charity Softball which was originally set for July 26 has been rescheduled as a doubleheader on Sunday, October 11 and will feature Donald Driver with former Green Bay Packers Super Bowl Champions and Legends. Plus, other athletes and celebrities will participate in the doubleheader. The 20th Annual Green & Gold Charity Softball game that had been scheduled to be played on June 7 before being delayed due to COVID-19 has been officially canceled.

The Donald Driver Charity Softball Games will be held at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium on Sunday, October 11. The first game is scheduled to start at 11:00am with the parking lot opening at 9:00am and the gates to the stadium opening at 10:00am. The stadium will be cleared at the conclusion of the first game. Game two is set to start at 3:00pm with the parking lot opening at noon and the gates to the stadium opening at 2:30pm.

The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers Ticket office will be in touch with all fans who have purchased tickets with an email that includes a form with the following four options:

  • Attend the 11:00am game on October 11
  • Attend the 3:00pm game on October 11
  • Donate the money for the purchased tickets to the 2020 games to local charities: Paul’s Pantry, Hunger Task Force, Donald Driver Foundation, and Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame Foundation
  • Request a full refund of the purchase price of their tickets to the 2020 game.

.

If you have purchased tickets to the games, but have not received an email from the Timber Rattlers, CLICK THIS LINK. It will take you to an online form that will help you choose your option.

Fans who purchased tickets to the 2020 Green & Gold Game have an additional option to roll over their tickets to the 2021 Green & Gold Charity Game.

Fans will have until Tuesday, September 15 at 5:00pm to respond. New digital tickets will be issued via email to fans who choose to attend the games on October 11.

There will be some changes to the Donald Driver Charity Softball Game, too. Fans will be seated in the stadium with a safe, socially distant manner in mind. Every effort will be made to get fans new tickets as close to their original seats as possible.

Unfortunately, the Donald Driver bobblehead that was to be an All-Fan Giveaway for his game on July 26 was unable to be finalized prior to the initial COVID-19 outbreak and will not be available for this game. The commemorative mini-football that was to be given away to Green & Gold Game ticket buyers who made their purchase before December 19 also had to be canceled due to COVID-19. Fans to attend the doubleheader on October 11 will receive a Donald Driver children’s book instead.

Some of the books will have a Donald Driver autograph. All ticketed fans will have a chance to win one of several softballs signed by Driver.

A full roster of attendees for the doubleheader will be announced closer to the day of the event.

There are currently no tickets available for the doubleheader, but if tickets become available, the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers will announce ticket availability on Thursday, September 17.
