A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Home of the Bronx Bombers: Visiting Yankee Stadium
No sports guide to the Bronx would be complete without paying homage to the cathedral of baseball: Yankee Stadium (1 E 161st St, Bronx, NY 10451). Whether you are a die-hard Yankees fan or just an admirer of sports history, catching a game here is an absolute must. The current stadium, which opened in 2009 just across the street from the footprint of the original "House That Ruth Built," offers modern amenities while honoring the team's legendary past. Before the first pitch, make sure your group arrives early to visit Monument Park in center field, where plaques and retired numbers honor legends like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, and Derek Jeter. It closes 45 minutes before game time, so timing is everything.
Getting a large group to Yankee Stadium on public transit during game day can be a nightmare of crowded subway cars and separated friends. Parking is equally daunting, with expensive lots that often require a long walk to the gates. When you rent a charter bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Bronx, we handle the logistics for you. We can drop your group off right near the stadium entrance, allowing you to head straight for the Great Hall or the Yankees Museum without the stress of finding a spot. After the game, your bus will be waiting to whisk you away, letting you recount every play in the comfort of a climate-controlled cabin with reclining seats. Whether it's a subway series showdown against the Mets or a pivotal playoff game, we ensure you get there ready to cheer.
NYCFC: Soccer Passion in the Borough
The Bronx isn't just about baseball anymore. It is also the home pitch for the New York City Football Club (NYCFC), which plays the majority of its home matches at Yankee Stadium. The atmosphere during a soccer match is electric, with the Third Rail supporters group bringing chants, drums, and an intensity that rivals any European league. Converting a baseball diamond into a soccer pitch creates a unique viewing experience where the fans feel right on top of the action. If you are organizing a trip for a local soccer club, a school team, or just a group of football aficionados, attending an NYCFC match is a fantastic way to spend an afternoon or evening.
Soccer teams often travel with a lot of gear—duffel bags, balls, cones, and coolers. Trying to squeeze all that into personal vehicles or rideshares is a recipe for frustration. Our full-size charter buses come equipped with spacious undercarriage storage bays, perfect for stowing all your equipment securely while keeping the aisles clear for passengers. Your team can review game tape on our onboard TV monitors or simply relax and mentally prepare for the match. If you are a visiting supporters group coming from New Jersey, Connecticut, or beyond, Charter Bus Rental Company Bronx offers the perfect solution to keep your group united and energized from pickup to drop-off.
College Athletics: Cheering on the Fordham Rams
Deep in the heart of the Bronx lies the beautiful Rose Hill campus of Fordham University (441 E Fordham Rd, Bronx, NY 10458), home to the Fordham Rams. The university boasts a rich athletic tradition, particularly in football and basketball. Jack Coffey Field is the place to be on fall Saturdays to catch FCS football action, while the historic Rose Hill Gym—the oldest NCAA Division I gymnasium still in use—offers an intimate and deafening atmosphere for basketball games. The Gothic architecture of the campus provides a stunning backdrop for a day of collegiate sports, making it a great destination for alumni groups, prospective student tours, and family outings.
Navigating a college campus with a large group can be confusing, especially regarding parking restrictions and visitor lots. By booking a minibus or charter bus, you eliminate the confusion. Your driver can drop your group off directly at the athletic complex and coordinate a pickup location for after the game. This is especially useful for alumni associations planning homecoming trips or tailgates. Speaking of tailgating, our buses offer plenty of room for your tents, folding chairs, and coolers, allowing you to set up the ultimate pre-game celebration in the parking lot before heading inside to cheer on the Rams.
Gaelic Park: A Unique Bronx Tradition
For a sporting experience you won't find just anywhere, head over to Gaelic Park (W 240th St, Bronx, NY 10463), located just west of Broadway near Manhattan College. Since the 1920s, this venue has been the headquarters for the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) of Greater New York. Here, you can witness the fast-paced, high-contact sports of Gaelic football and hurling. It is a slice of Irish culture right here in the Bronx, complete with a clubhouse, a bar, and a passionate community. It is a fantastic destination for cultural clubs, sports teams looking to learn a new game, or anyone looking to expand their sporting horizons.
Gaelic Park is tucked away in the Kingsbridge neighborhood, where street parking is scarce and often metered. A private bus rental is the most efficient way to bring a group to this historic venue. Whether you are bringing a youth league to watch a match or organizing a cultural heritage tour, Charter Bus Rental Company Bronx ensures your group arrives together. After enjoying the matches and perhaps a post-game meal at the on-site banquet hall, your driver will be ready to transport you comfortably to your next destination, be it a local Irish pub or back home.
Golfing in the Bronx: Van Cortlandt and Pelham Bay
If you prefer to play rather than watch, the Bronx offers some of the most historic and scenic public golf courses in New York City. Van Cortlandt Golf Course (115 Van Cortlandt Park S, Bronx, NY 10471), located in the expansive Van Cortlandt Park, holds the title of the oldest public golf course in the country. It is easily accessible yet feels miles away from the city hustle. On the eastern side of the borough, Pelham Bay & Split Rock Golf Courses (870 Shore Rd, Bronx, NY 10464) offer two distinct 18-hole experiences with stunning views and challenging layouts nestled within New York City's largest park.
Planning a corporate golf outing, a charity tournament, or a bachelor party on the links? Transporting golf clubs for a large group is a logistical hurdle that standard rideshares simply cannot handle. Our charter buses offer ample storage space beneath the bus for golf bags, carts, and personal luggage, ensuring your clubs arrive in pristine condition. Inside, your group can enjoy the air-conditioned comfort, perhaps utilizing the PA system to announce pairings or the onboard WiFi to check the leaderboard. Let Charter Bus Rental Company Bronx handle the drive so you can focus on your swing.
The Best Sports Bars for Pre-Game and Post-Game Fun
The game doesn't start at the first whistle, nor does it end at the final buzzer. The Bronx is home to legendary sports bars that are integral to the fan experience. Stan's Sports Bar (836 River Ave, Bronx, NY 10451) is an institution for Yankees fans, located right across from the stadium. It’s the perfect place to soak up the atmosphere, but be warned: it gets packed. Just down the street, Billy's Sports Bar (856 River Ave, Bronx, NY 10451) offers a massive space with a rooftop deck, perfect for large groups to gather before heading into the game. For a more local vibe, The Dugout (880 River Ave, Bronx, NY 10452) offers affordable drinks and a classic pub feel.
When you are bar-hopping with a large group, trying to coordinate multiple taxis or Ubers is a surefire way to lose people or dampen the mood. With a party bus or minibus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company Bronx, the party travels with you. Your bus acts as your designated driver, ensuring everyone gets from the bar to the stadium—and back home—comfortably and responsibly. You can even keep the energy high on board with our premium sound systems and LED lighting features (available on select party buses), making the transit just as fun as the destination.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bronx Sports Transportation
Where can charter buses park at Yankee Stadium?
Bus parking at Yankee Stadium is limited and regulations can change, so it is crucial to plan ahead. Charter buses can drop off and pick up passengers along East 161st Street or near the Major Deegan Expressway service roads designated for commercial vehicles. There are specific lots designated for bus parking, such as the garage at River Avenue, but these often require advance reservations and fees. When you book with Charter Bus Rental Company Bronx, the drivers handle the parking logistics for you. We will drop you off near the entrance and park at a designated off-site layover area, returning to pick you up exactly when you need us. This saves you the headache of managing parking permits yourself.
How far in advance should we book our bus for a big game?
For major sporting events in the Bronx, such as Opening Day at Yankee Stadium, the Subway Series (Yankees vs. Mets), or NYCFC playoff matches, demand for charter buses is extremely high. We strongly recommend booking your bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best pricing. If you are planning transportation for a full season of team travel, booking as soon as your schedule is released is ideal. However, we understand that last-minute needs arise—especially for playoff runs! Our team is available 24/7 to try and accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible.
What sizes of buses are available for sports teams with equipment?
We offer a wide range of bus sizes to accommodate teams of all sizes and their gear. For smaller squads like a basketball or tennis team, an 18 to 25-passenger minibus usually offers sufficient seating, though luggage space may be limited to overhead bins. For football, hockey, baseball, or lacrosse teams traveling with bulky equipment bags, pads, and uniforms, we highly recommend a 56-passenger full-size charter bus. These motorcoaches feature massive undercarriage storage bays specifically designed to hold large volumes of luggage and equipment, keeping the cabin clutter-free and comfortable for the athletes.
