BEAUMONT, Texas, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Beaumont Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) is happy to welcome teams from across the nation to play in Beaumont. Famously known for sports, Beaumont's location, facilities, and an average 213 days of sun per year make hosting sporting events in Beaumont a reality, year-round. Whether playing "America's favorite pastime" or pickleball, Beaumont offers a number of facilities that can help beat the snow or the heat.
"We understand that it has been a trying year but are so glad to be able to give sports planners and teams the opportunity to utilize our facilities to play the game that they love," said CVB Director of Sales, Freddie Willard.
