Charlotte NC - A Sports Spectator's Paradise

Charlotte is home to passionate sports fans and has, over the years, added various professional sports teams to our city's already impressive resume!  We enjoy watching basketball, football, hockey, baseball and we're home to many NASCAR teams!

     bobcats

The Charlotte Bobcats are the latest in a league of up and coming young NBA teams. Their offense is fast paced, exciting, and they are willing to scrap for every point. This season, the only thing equal to the amount of talent on this team is their hearts. Come watch witness the passion of our beloved Bobcats.

Tickets available online at CharlotteBobcatsArena.com, by phone at 704-522-6500, in person at Charlotte Bobcats Arena Box Office and all Ticketmaster outlets. Tickets start at $10.00. Visit www.bobcats.com for more information.

    PANTHERS

The Carolina Panthers were added to the NFL as an expansion team in 1995. The Panthers nearly defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXVIII, and seem to be the hot pick to win the NFC South many seasons.  With a little luck in the injury department for the 2010 Carolina Panthers schedule, it would be no surprise at all to see them finally win the division again.  We're looking forward to a fabulous Carolina Panthers (affectionately known as the ‘Cardiac Cats’) 2010 season at Bank of America Stadium.  Carolina Panther tickets are guaranteed to allow you to see a contending team every year.  See the most exciting team in the NFL; get your Panther tickets today!

Contact the Carolina Panthers Ticket Office at 704-358-7800 or visit www.panthers.com for more information.


CHECKERS

Charlotte is known as the birthplace of professional hockey in the South, and the Charlotte Checkers are proud to be part of that history.  The Checkers, a member of the ECHL, are the affiliate of the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League and the Hartford Wolf Pack of the American Hockey League.  Following a 17-year hiatus from hockey, Charlotte welcomed the Checkers back in 1993.  Since their return, the Checkers have made the playoffs nine times – highlighted by an ECHL Championship in 1996.  Charlotte Checkers look to continue the tradition of exceeding the expectations of their fans by providing a family-oriented environment at home games, quality broadcasts and a commitment to the Charlotte community.  With 36 home games filled with exciting hockey, fun promotions and great giveaways, the Charlotte Checkers have a ticket package to fit every budget. 

To order tickets, call 704-342-4-ICE or visit www.gocheckers.com for more information.


KNIGHTS

 

In 1999, the Knights signed a player development contract with the Chicago White Sox. In its first year with the White Sox, the Knights won the IL Governors' Cup Championship and advanced to the second-ever Triple-A World Series in Las Vegas. In the past few years, numerous Sox prospects have honed their skills at Knights Stadium before being called up to Chicago. 2000 IL Pitcher of the Year Jon Garland is now a staple in the White Sox rotation, while position players such as Willie Harris, Joe Crede and Aaron Rowand have proved their worth with the big league club. Be a part of the Charlotte Knights in 2008. It's a great way to spend time with your family or to thank your valued clients or employees.
