Sports Tourism and Economic Impact
Tourism is the largest portion of
Clearwater’s economy, and sport
tourism is the number one segment
within the leisure sector. Today,
Clearwater enjoys an economic impact
of $145 million from sport tourism,
with more than $125 million (or 90
percent) coming from Philadelphia
Phillies Spring Training.
With our combined professional and
amateur events each year, Clearwater
is responsible for two-thirds of Pinellas
County’s total sports tourism. Eddie
C. Moore Complex alone hosts
around 42 athletic events a year. The
city has also been selected to host
national and international events
this year. For more information or to
volunteer, call Patrick Carter at
562-4802, ext. 3811.
