Read on to discover how this winning auction package will help you hit it out of the park at your next event.

Pulse-pounding Pro Sports

When it comes to thrilling spectacle and wild atmosphere, professional sports games are in a league of their own.

The atmosphere is electric. Fans buzzing with anticipation can turn into thousands of cheering voices in a single, thrilling moment. Attending a live game allows fans to focus solely on their team without any distractions, becoming fully immersed in the edge-of-your-seat action.

And the excitement of live sports is contagious. Surrounded by other dedicated fans, the emotions of the game are amplified tenfold by a sense of passionate camaraderie that will have even the most casual of fans clinging to strangers in the tense moments and hugging them in victorious ones.

 With 30 NBA teams and 2,460 regular season games to choose from, this package easily courts ultimate basketball fans of all ages. 

Location, Location, Location!

STADIUMS AND ARENAS 

From the famed walls of Fenway to the lush white lines of Lambeau Field, the stadiums and arenas around the country and across pro sports are unmissable. The energy of the crowd, the excitement of the game, and the passion of the players combine to create a thrilling spectacle that cannot be replicated at home.

Stadiums and areas are home to a truly special sense of camaraderie and community that comes with attending a live sports game. Whether you are rooting for the home team or the visiting team, high-fiving strangers, sharing in the joy of victory or the agony of defeat, and bonding over a common love for the game creates a sense of unity and connection that is hard to find elsewhere.

GOLF COURSES

From the coastal challenge of Pebble Beach to the unforgiving scrublands of Pinehurst, professional golf courses offer picture-perfect and pristine designs that are anything but par for the course. The gorgeous fairways, perfectly manicured greens, and stunning landscape provide a picturesque backdrop that adds to the overall ambiance of the event. The scenic beauty of the course can transport spectators to a serene and calming environment, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the game.

Standing on the sidelines, the skill and precision demonstrated by professional golfers as they navigate the course is truly impressive to witness firsthand. Watching them strategize and execute their shots with such expertise and finesse can be awe-inspiring for fans of the sport. 

2025 marks the first calendar-year schedule for the PGA since 2012, with 36 regular-season events on the Tour for your donors to delight in. 

Why Donors Will Love It

A travel package for ultimate sports fans gives donors the opportunity to support your cause with their perfect pro sports experience.

Here will be a few things for the highlight reel!

PRIME LOWER LEVEL SEATING & GROUNDS PASSES

Offering a fantastic vantage point of the game, lower level seating provides donors an up-close-and-personal experience with the outrageous athletic skills, intricate team strategies, and unparalleled intensity of the competition firsthand. The proximity to the athletes, team benches, cheerleaders, or other special features like live music, mascots, or halftime shows means lower level seating offers high-level engagement for donors looking for a slam dunk entertainment experience.

And for the fanatics, sitting in the lower level or holding grounds passes increases the chances of interacting with players before or after the game. Getting autographs and taking photos with their favorite athletes will be a big W with donors.

LASTING MEMORIES OF SPORTS HISTORY

Going to a game with friends, family, or fellow fans allows for shared experiences and strengthens bonds. The memories created during these events often become stories that are shared and reminisced upon for years to come. Witnessing iconic moments or witnessing great performances by athletes can leave a lasting impression. Whether it's a game-winning shot, a record-breaking performance, or a comeback victory, these extraordinary events become part of a fan's memory and are often relived and discussed.

Every sport and team has its unique traditions and rituals that fans partake in. From chants and songs to specific game rituals, these experiences become traditions that evoke nostalgia and create lasting memories for fans.

NOVELTY TREATS

Batter, up! Whether it's funnel cakes and corn dogs or margaritas and munchies, professional sports games are serving up savory stadium snacks and sweets. Donors can indulge in novelty desserts that are shaped like sports equipment or feature team logos like baseball-shaped cake pops, basketball-themed cupcakes, or football-shaped cookies. Fans of the home team can often find treats in the form of limited edition merchandise sold exclusively at the stadium like commemorative candies, team-branded snacks, or collectible packaging for favorite snacks.

For donors who dig old sports tradition, they can dig into concession-stand classics like giant soft pretzels, gourmet hot dogs with unusual toppings, or monstrous nacho platters. And no sporting event is complete without hydration--stadiums and arenas often offer unique drink options that you can't find elsewhere such as team-themed cocktails, custom-made soft drinks, or specialty beers brewed specifically for the event.
