Golden State Warriors

The Golden State Warriors, the Bay Area’s basketball team, have become a unifying source of pride since we moved west more than 50 years ago. Hall of Famers such as Wilt Chamberlain, Nate Thurmond, Chris Mullin and Rick Barry have all proudly worn the Warriors uniform, along with All Stars Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. In 2015, our franchise won its fourth NBA Championship. The Warriors remain one of the NBA’s elite teams and have been recognized as one of the top organizations in all of professional sports, including winning the 2014 and 2016 Sports Business Team of the Year Award and Franchise of the Decade from the Sports Business Journal/Daily.

It takes more than the players on the court to bring games to our fans. Behind the roster and coaching staff is a collection of hard-working individuals, striving for greatness off the court. We consider our employees to be team members, and refer to them as such. We are more than just a company or a basketball team — the work we do is impactful. We exemplify the unique spirit of the Bay Area as innovators both on and off the court. We are one organization with one purpose, chasing history one goal at a time. Become a member of our team today!

“This is one organization. That’s the secret. One organization. We know we’re in it together. In one cohesive vision, one set of strategies and tactics. That’s why I think we’ve been successful.”

Chase Center

The Golden State Warriors and GSW Arena LLC officially broke ground January 17, 2017 for Chase Center, a state-of-the-art sports and entertainment complex to be built in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood. After two years spent participating in a public planning process, construction began and Chase Center was scheduled to open for the start of the 2019–20 NBA season.

In September 2019, Chase Center opened to sold-out crowds, rave reviews, and well-managed traffic. It has since hosted a variety of events, including concerts, family shows and conventions, in addition to Warriors basketball. The 18,000-seat Chase Center anchors a district of 11 acres of restaurants, cafes, offices, public plazas and other amenities to serve the Mission Bay neighborhood. Chase Center is located on a major Muni Metro rail line with easy links to BART and other transit options. Chase Center is currently the only privately financed facility of its kind built on private property in the modern era of professional sports.

“We have been looking forward to this day since we first had the vision of building a privately financed state-of-the-art sports and entertainment complex in San Francisco and are excited for what this will bring to the city of San Francisco and the entire Bay Area community. Chase Center and the surrounding area will serve as a destination for the entire community and we will continue to work to make sure it is the best experience possible for everyone to enjoy NBA basketball, concerts, family shows, conventions and more.”

Santa Cruz Warriors

On December 23, 2012, the Warriors tipped off the first professional basketball game in Santa Cruz history with a 93–88 victory against the Bakersfield Jam in front of a sellout crowd at Kaiser Permanente Arena. The game was a culmination of months of hard work and collaboration with the City of Santa Cruz — a partnership that began with the team’s move from Bismarck, North Dakota at the end of the 2011-2012 season. With one NBA G League Championship (known then as the NBA Developmental League, or D-League) in 2014-2015, three Finals appearances, and the most passionate fans in the league, the Warriors enter their 13th season proud to represent the Santa Cruz community on and off the court.

On June 27, 2011, new Golden State Warriors owners Joe Lacob and Peter Guber acquired the Dakota Wizardswith the intention of moving the team from Bismarck to Santa Cruz, California. The move was described as a critical step for the Warriors, and upon completing the acquisition, Lacob rebranded the team to the Santa Cruz Warriors and began to shape the franchise into a full-service minor league development system for the Warriors organization. The Santa Cruz Warriors are strategically located only 70 miles south of the Golden State headquarters, allowing the team to serve as a training ground for the Warriors organization to develop on- and off-court talent while simultaneously creating their own unique identity and building their own legacy in the local community.

Known colloquially to fans as the “Sea Dubs,” the Santa Cruz Warriors are fortunate to call Santa Cruz — a vibrant seaside community with a deep-rooted passion for basketball — their home. Through the team’s community outreach initiatives, the Warriors partner with local schools and nonprofits to foster authentic relationships and build genuine connections with community members that, over time, become committed lifelong fans. Kaiser Permanente Arena, a 2,476-seat arena in downtown Santa Cruz, is the home of the Santa Cruz Warriors.
