VISION OF OUR RUNWAY TO AMWAY BOOSTER CLUB
​
Image is everything. We've enjoyed insurmountable success as a team, but playing in the backyard of an actual NBA team has it's challenges. Playing all of our games at the Amway Center will give us a higher level of public credential, causing more fans to want to attend games, while also demanding more attention from the media. Playing in a world class venue will also grow our platform, which will, in turn, give our team a bigger level of influence, which we plan to utilize to further invest in the youth around us.
​
We've done the preliminary calculations regarding the financial requirements of playing at the Amway Center. We are confident that with every 100 boosters added, we will be able to add one stand-alone basketball event per season at the Amway Center (thus the name of this Runway to Amway Booster Club). In 2010, we were barely a plane. After 7 years, we've grown to a place where we are on the runway to doing very big things. The next step in realizing the full vision of the Florida Flight is upgrading the venue we play in.
Becoming a Flight Booster is like joining our family. Our vision is grandiose. That's why we need a boost...from people like you. Be a huge part of our history. Support the Florida Flight as an annual Runway to Amway Booster Member.
