Rhode Island may be small in size but it's big on sports. Unique, accessible, and entertaining, sporting event and meeting options are only limited by your imagination. From sailing along 400 miles of coastline, to cutting an edgy slice of culture with the roller derby circuit, Rhode Island is the ultimate playground for your event or meeting. The state boasts convenient and professional venues and meetings accommodations, plus first-class facilities that are perfect for any event.
But we all know the games don't end after the final whistle. Rhode Island's convenient size means you are mere minutes from an abundance of award-winning restaurants, art, accommodations and entertainment. The state houses the award-winning, recently upgraded Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport, plus highways, railways and easy access to the population-dense Northeast region. Call it our "home court advantage."
Major matches are headed to New England this summer, and Providence, Rhode Island, is the ideal home base for fans — whether you call it soccer, football or fútbol.
The Rhode Island Sports Commission just made the exciting announcement that it will disperse $40,000 in seed funding to eight youth soccer organizations across the state to support upcoming events as part of the RI Summer of Soccer umbrella.
