[Who We Are ]

Our Mission

The San Francisco City Cats mission is to professionally develop a world-class “outside the box” thinking Sports Franchise so that we may endeavor to set us apart from the competition.

We will accomplish this by:

Mutual respect for each other, and a commitment to excellence, innovation, integrity and quality in everything we do.
By providing our guests with superior entertainment in a clean, secure, and comfortable environment—win or lose—regardless of their interest level in basketball.
By helping our sponsors build their brands and grow their business.
By treating our respective constituencies with respect, appreciation, and as we ourselves would want to be treated and serviced. In other words, by putting our fans and sponsors first every single day—and meaning it.
By making our community a better place to live through our support of worthy social causes.
By involving our guests in the game as active participants—not merely spectators.
By knowing who and where our fans are, and reaching out to them.
By working hard to make ABA basketball the most popular sport in our community and by selling and humanizing our players to everyone we meet.
By being proactive and accountable in carrying out our mission.
