SUGAR LAND, TX - The JJ Watt Foundation is excited to announce that tickets will go on sale Tuesday, December 12 at 12 p.m. CT for the JJ Watt Charity Classic on May 4, 2024, at Constellation Field-just in time for the holidays.

Houston Texans legend JJ Watt, current Texans' players and other celebrities will play softball and compete in a home run derby at this family-friendly event. Proceeds from the game will go towards the JJ Watt Foundation's mission to provide funding for 6th - 8th grade after-school athletic programs to purchase uniforms and/or school equipment.

"The Charity Classic is always one of my favorite days of the year," said Watt. "My teammates come out; the fans are unbelievable... I started this foundation back when I was in college, and I never imagined it would grow to where it is today."

This event is a fan favorite every year. Attendees will enjoy in-game giveaways, a silent auction, fireworks show and more. JJ Watt Foundation and JJ Watt Charity Classic merchandise will also be available for purchase. Tickets are expected to sell out and range from $12-$250 per ticket.

Since 2013, the JJ Watt Foundation has provided over $7 million in funding to 832 schools across the country. Watt and his Foundation have hosted six memorable Charity Classics-three at Constellation Field in 2013, 2014 and 2015, and three at Minute Maid Park in 2016, 2017 and 2019.
