Charlotte Sports Park

Charlotte Sports Park is a state-of-the-art facility with a baseball boardwalk ringing the outfield, family-friendly kids play area, upgraded concession stands and a top-notch team store. The Rays Inaugural Spring Training Season in Charlotte County in 2009 featured record breaking crowds, as the Rays set a franchise record for single-season home attendance. During the 2010 Spring season, the attendance record was broken for the largest single game crowd at Charlotte Sports Park. The 2011 and 2012 seasons once again featured great crowds and excitement. Charlotte Sports Park is also home to the Charlotte Stone Crabs of the Florida State League, who have made the playoffs two of their first four seasons.
