CHARLOTTE — Grab your team jersey and cowbell: The Charlotte Checkers are back on the ice at Bojangles Coliseum.

This season, fans will have plenty of opportunities to see the team on weekend dates. Of the 36 home games, 29 land on either Friday, Saturday or Sunday, including the previously-announced Queen City Outdoor Classic against the Rochester Americans that will be played at Truist Field on Jan. 13.

For the first time since the 2016-17 season, there are teams from California on the Checkers’ schedule. The Checkers will face off against the San Jose Barracuda at home the first weekend in November and the San Diego Gulls in mid-January.

Several popular promotions have returned this season, including Winning Wednesday, featuring $1 beer and a free ticket to the next Wednesday game if the Checkers win, and Family Game nights, offering discounts of 40% on groups of four tickets or more.
