Tormenta FC advises fans wanting to attend matches in-person to purchase 2020 tickets in advance to guarantee their spot as capacity is limited due to government regulations surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. Walk-up tickets throughout the season are not guaranteed.

Fans can watch every game of the 2020 League One season from the comfort of their own home via ESPN+ domestically and YouTube internationally. For fans that do not have access to the ESPN family of networks, we teamed up with a number of Watch Party Partner locations across South Georgia and the Lowcountry of South Carolina, where you can cheer on Tormenta FC.

Tormenta FC continues to follow the recommendations given by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the United Soccer League, and local and state health officials. Fans attending matches at Erk Russell Park this season will be asked to follow Tormenta FC's health and safety guidelines.
