Spend your Thanksgiving holiday amid the splendor of the Great Smoky Mountains, while participating in our 39th Annual Thanksgiving Football Tournament. We have Age Division Brackets to accommodate 6-14 years of age, and this year we have added 3 Pop Warner style divisions for teams to compete in a competitive atmosphere. This past year we had teams from ten states competing in our three-day tournament. Our registration fee is FREE, if you are staying at one of our Host Hotels (starting at $69.99 per night) in downtown Gatlinburg, $500 otherwise there is no gate fee for spectators, this keeps the price down for your families. This is a great opportunity to get your team together one last time to celebrate a great season. We offer a small town experience with plenty of extras. Register for our tournament and be part of another spectacular year. There will be a 48 team max this year, so secure your spot early.
