About the Event
The Battle of the Badges Charity Softball Game brings together members of the Cincinnati Police, Cincinnati Fire, and Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office for a day of friendly competition, camaraderie, and community impact.
What started as a fun rivalry has grown into a meaningful community event — raising funds and awareness for local charitable initiatives while giving first responders and the community an opportunity to come together outside of their everyday roles.
Events like this not only support important causes, but also strengthen the connection between those who serve and the communities they protect.

What to Expect
- Friendly competition between local first responders
- Family-friendly atmosphere
- Community engagement and support
- A meaningful way to give back
Why it Matters
Proceeds from the Battle of the Badges support meaningful charitable initiatives right here in our community.
Your participation—whether attending, sponsoring, or spreading the word — helps us continue to make a lasting impact and give back to the communities we serve every day.
