The Black Bear Classic has emerged as one of the best events on the East Coast since its creation in 2014. Yearly the Black Bear has brought a large amount of high level travel teams, their families, and coaches/scouts to Greenville, SC. In 2021, Black Bear featured over 230 teams and had 100+ coaches/scouts in attendance. 

Travel + Leisure called Greenville a “Top Place to Travel in 2018 (in the World).” Men’s Journal listed Greenville among its “Top 18 Coolest Towns in America.” Why the accolades? Greenville offers visitors a unique blend of traditional Southern charm and contemporary cool you won’t find anywhere else. Its award-winning, tree-lined Main Street buzzes with people, locally owned boutiques and 110+ inventive restaurants. Not to mention a ridiculously picturesque 32-acre park situated in the heart of downtown, with a breathtaking waterfall and a one-of-a-kind floating pedestrian bridge.
