4 Reasons Why Rocky Top Sports World is the Best Place for Fall Sports

For anyone who plays sports, odds are fall is a busy time for you. Whether you’re a coach, athlete or parent, you’re always at a practice, scrimmage or game during the Autumn months. If you play fall sports, you need to come spend some time at our sports complex. Here are 4 reasons why Rocky Top Sports World is the best place for fall sports:

1. Perfect Weather

The fall weather in East Tennessee is incredible! With cool mornings and evenings, with warm days in the middle, it’s the perfect time to come for a visit. In September, expect highs in the 80’s with lows in the upper 50’s at night. Things start to cool down in October, with highs normally ranging in the low 70’s and low temperatures in the 40’s. After Halloween, approaching Thanksgiving in November, you’ll see perfect sports weather, with highs in the 60’s and cool nights in the 30’s. You may see a little more rain starting in October and normally drying out by mid-November.

2. Tons of Fall Events

We also offer various basketball events for all age groups, including Rumble at the Rock and Middle School Mania. Does your son play soccer? Sign him and his team up for the Southeast Classic at Gatlinburg. Lacrosse coaches, make sure to get your team registered for the Halloween weekend tournament, Battle in the Burg.

3. Beautiful Views

Our sports complex is located at the base of the Great Smoky Mountains and comes with gorgeous views all year round. However, the views are never more beautiful than when fall arrives. Beginning in the higher elevations first, you’ll see bright reds, yellows and oranges begin to coat the mountains. By mid-November, most of the mountains will be lit up with these outstanding colors, creating a breathtaking backdrop to all your games. Make sure to get a team photo in front of these views at your next game!
