The 2025 Southeastern Conference (SEC) softball tournament was held at Jack Turner Stadium on the campus of the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia, from May 6 through May 10, 2025.[3][4] The event determined the champion of the Southeastern Conference for the 2025 season. Oklahoma & Texas A&M were named co-champions due to inclement weather. Oklahoma received the SEC's automatic bid to the 2025 NCAA Division I softball tournament due to being the highest remaining seed in the SEC tournament.[5]

This was the first year of a 15-team tournament.
