Gainesville Sports Commission - Gainesville Florida

The award-winning Gainesville Sports Commission (GSC) is the leading voice of sports tourism in Alachua County, Florida. For more than 23 years we’ve hosted and assisted others in hosting sports competitions “…Where champions practice, play and win every day.” Our small town atmosphere with world class facilities makes us the perfect community to host your next competition.

We pride ourselves in helping to add more than $20 million each year to the area’s local tourism economy, but we’re much more than a source of positive economic benefits. We add to our community’s health and quality of life through recreation and sustainable sports events.

We do our part, and have been honored nationally, for our efforts supporting sports, recreation, and tourism. Our partnership with VisitGainesville and other organizations in our destination is a national model for how sports commissions and CVB’s can work together.

If you are looking for a place to host your state, regional, national or international sports event, look no further than our community and the GSC. Our professional staff and corps of local volunteers can skillfully host your event using our experience, industry professional standards, and best practices.
