Top Notch Soccer Tournament Facility in Tennessee

The Dr. Carl T. Duer Soccer Complex, a longtime goal of Duer’s, opened for play in 2009 and immediately “proved itself worthy,” city officials said. Over 900 Crossville Recreation Youth Soccer Association players were on the field in 2010 alone, and several state-level matches have been played with teams coming from Chattanooga, Knoxville and the Nashville area. The Kohl’s American Cup event, held in conjunction with the United States Youth Soccer Association has been held at this complex as well as other events which has provided excitement for the community.

We Keep Your Tournament in Great Company

The City of Crossville has hosted numerous tournaments and welcomed thousands of guests to Duer Soccer Complex since it’s formation in 2009.

Our experienced and friendly staff offers you the service and support you need to make your soccer tournament a success.

My expectations for a park is that I have a liaison throughout the process of obtaining the park prior to my date, and have someone there for field maintenance the day of the event. I have held tournaments throughout the Southeast, and Centennial Park in Crossville is one of the best parks I have used. From the fields being ready no matter the weather, to the staff always being readily available, Crossville goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable before your bigger events. We have ran upwards of 70 teams there on a given weekend, and they never batted an eye to have things how we expected them to be. They are one of my favorite parks to use because the fields are top notch, and the customer service can't be matched. I would recommend this park to all directors looking for a quality location for your events.

The Parks and Recreation staff is always accommodating to me whether I am holding a large or small tournament. There is ample parking to accommodate very large tournaments. Whenever I have needed anything from the staff, they get it for me within minutes. When I contact the park director during winter before the upcoming season, he is able to tell me then what dates are available and I reserve them at that time. This is really helpful in planning my entire softball season. When I am at Centennial Park, every staff member makes me feel appreciated and lets me know they appreciate me having tournaments there. Concessions are very good. Centennial Park is my favorite place to have softball tournaments. They have five fields usable for softball allowing me to have large tournaments, but if I only need two fields, they are fine with that as well. My best softball tournaments and experiences are at Crossville's Centennial Park.

I have been holding men and women's slowpitch softball tournaments at Crossville's Centennial Park for about 10 years. The fields are always in excellent shape and when bad weather hits, the park's staff gets the fields ready to play very quickly.
