Spurs Unveil Unique New Initiative for Special Fan Section

It is truly a new era in the Alamo City, for both the city and the San Antonio Spurs. With a new generational talent in Victor Wembanyama fully entrenched as the new face of the historic franchise, the team recently announced an innovation to make the energy and excitement at the Frost Bank Center even greater.

In time for the impending 2025-26 season, the team recently held open tryouts for a brand new fan section, dubbed the Spurs Supporter Section. The goal is to gather a collection of the loudest, rowdiest, most die-hard fans to fill up a new section and deliver on game days.

Wembanyama was on hand for the event and is credited as being the brainchild of the new section; his goal was to mimic the supporter sections that are often found in European soccer stadiums. The tryouts were held in two groups to identify 5-10 “capos” (who are the most passionate fans) to lead chants and ensure that the energy inside Frost Bank Center never stops.

“If this group of Ultras reaches its full potential, it’s gonna help us win games in the future, for sure,” Wembanyama said in a video released by the Spurs.

Members of the Spurs Supporter Section are required to attend at least 75 percent of Spurs home games during the 2025-26 season; membership in the section will cost $999 and include tickets and parking passes to all Spurs home games. Wembanyama himself has vowed to pay the membership dues for five of the liveliest fans.

The fans will be divided into two sections during home games at Frost Bank Center: Section 114, as well as the standing room only area above Section 114, in the H-E-B Fan Zone.
