10 years ago, our community dared to dream big and together, we made it happen. For 10 years, this has been the place where athletes are built, where memories are made, and where our region continues to score big. We are now known as one of the Midwest’s premier sports destinations. Over the last 10 years, thousands of athletes, families, and visitors have come through these doors, helping us retain, regain, and grow the region’s sports tourism market. For 10 years, this spectacular venue has delivered time and again meeting community needs, accommodating countless tournament layouts, and hosting a wide variety of events. It’s proof of what’s possible when a community comes together with a shared vision. The Sports Factory wasn’t built by one person or one organization it was made possible through strong partnerships, courage, and commitment. A decade of big wins, with even more ahead.

Congratulations to our maintenance team at the Sports Factory on receiving the Hospitality Hero Award! With so many events and programs coming through week in and week out, it takes a tremendous amount of hard work and late nights after tournaments wrap up to have the building ready for the next use. From events like the Special Olympics and National Collegiate Table Tennis to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions, your versatility and dedication to keeping the building running smoothly while welcoming tens of thousands of visitors each year is incredible. Thank you, Go Rockford for recognizing our team!
