Disney's Wide World of Sports
Disney's Wide World of Sports encompasses 2000 acres of the Walt Disney World Resort and hosts a myriad of professional and amateur events. Here is some of what you will find at this impressive sports complex:
- Major league sized Baseball fields
- 6 NBA sized Basketball Courts
- 2 Little League Fields
- 4 Softball Fields with lighting
- 12 Hard-Tru tennis courts
- 400 meter track and field complex
- 6 beach volleyball courts
The Atlanta Braves have held their spring training here for 9 years; you might be able to check out a game if you are visiting March. See: http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/parks/specialEvents?id=AtlantaBravesDetailPage
The NBA, NCAA, NFL, and PGA all host annual events here, although these generally require a special events ticket. The Amateur Athletic Union now makes Disney's Wide World of Sports its home and most amateur events are included in the General Spectator Admission ticket (adults $11, Children $8.25). You can use a “plus” from your Water Park Fun & More ticket add-on, if you have an extra you are not using. Otherwise, save it for the more expensive water park or Disney Quest admissions.
