The Riverside Sports Commission generates leads, organizes site visits, coordinates venue/site inspections, and leads the request for proposal/bid process to attract sports competitions to Riverside.
The Riverside Sports Commission plays an important role in helping sports organizations with their pre-event planning and event co-production. In this way, the RSC acts as an extension of the sports organization itself.

The Riverside Sports Commission partners with clients to coordinate local public relations efforts by announcing sports competitions at local meetings and events, generating press releases and working with the media to cover the events. Additionally, the team posts events on Riverside’s community calendar, and submits event logos for placement on the City of Riverside’s electronic billboards, including on the 91 Freeway, capturing the attention of 250,000 daily drivers.
