Reno Tahoe USA is home to 290 days of special events each year, and also hosts some of the world’s best amateur athletes in competitions from the USA Track and Field National Junior Cross Country Championships to regional AAU basketball tournaments. Reno Tahoe is also home to three professional sports teams, allowing you to get in on the action almost any time of year!
RENO 1868 FC is the newest addition to the regional cache of professional sports teams. This United League Soccer team is in its first season, playing at Greater Nevada Field in downtown Reno. Greater Nevada Field is also home to the Reno Aces, 2012 Champions of Minor League Baseball’s Triple-A league. The Reno Bighorns is the region’s NBA D-League Basketball team, playing in the 6,000-seat Reno Events Center, and negotiations are underway on a deal that could soon bring professional hockey to downtown Reno as well.
With the University of Nevada, myriad seasonal sporting events and potentially four professional sports teams, there’s no doubt that Reno Tahoe is upping its game in sports entertainment!
Join Go West as we visit one of Reno's most famous sporting landmarks, the world-famous National Bowling Stadium, on Wednesday evening. See you in Reno!
