Sports

Named “Sports City USA,” Frisco is home to a wealth of major and minor league sport franchises and organizations, from The Dallas Cowboys to the NHL’s Dallas Stars and Major League Soccer club, FC Dallas. Their world-class headquarters and complexes, including The Star and Ford Center, Comerica Center, and Toyota Stadium, are an integral part of Frisco and give back to our community in many ways, particularly in supporting student athletes.

And Frisco's newest addition, the PGA of America's $600-million corporate headquarters and championship resort, will transform the City into “The Silicon Valley of Golf,” as stated by Seth Waugh, CEO, PGA of America. The new headquarters, currently under construction, includes two 18-hole championship courses, an Omni resort, and mixed-use retail space.
