Catch the Excitement on Game Day
While Greenville is a great place to get out and enjoy participating in a variety of sports and activities, sometimes there's nothing more fun than passing through a turnstile and settling into the stands to watch a game or two. From the crack of a bat at a baseball game to the fast-paced excitement of a hockey game, there's something year-round for all fans. Explore the local teams and venues that you'll find on the athletic event calendar in Greenville.
Baseball fans can root, root, root for the home team, the Greenville Drive, at Fluor Field at the West End. This team is the High-A East affiliate of the Boston Red Sox, and fans will even find a "Green Monster" in left field. Fans of soccer—or in this case, futbol—will enjoy a Greenville Triumph match at Furman University's Paladin Stadium. Part of the professional United Soccer League (USL), Triumph fans are a passionate group creating tons of excitement at every match. Greenville's women's soccer team, the Greenville Liberty, also plays at the Paladin Stadium and is one of eight teams of the United Soccer League's (USL) W League. When temps cool, get ready to catch the action at a Greenville Swamp Rabbits ice hockey game at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena! The team is affiliated with the LA Kings of the National Hockey League (NHL) and the Ontario Reign of the American Hockey League (AHL).
Collegiate sports are just as exciting in the Upstate, with Greenville, SC, named to host the SEC Women's Basketball Tournament through 2028! There's no shortage of collegiate athletic events throughout the remainder of the year with Furman, Bob Jones, and North Greenville University in the county, and Clemson nearby as well.
