CANTON, Ohio – Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company, the only resort, entertainment and media company centered around the power of professional football, today announced it has signed a multi-year agreement with Cleveland Clinic to make it the official healthcare provider of the Hall of Fame Village Sports Complex and Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium.

As part of the agreement, Cleveland Clinic will provide medical services to program participants at the Hall of Fame Village year-round. On-site personnel will refer those needing further medical assistance to nearby Cleveland Clinic healthcare professionals. Cleveland Clinic Sports Medicine offers athletes comprehensive evaluation and treatment of sports-related conditions, including surgical and non-surgical options. A tailored plan of care is developed to meet each individual’s needs and goals. The Hall of Fame Village Sports Complex training facility will also include Cleveland Clinic branding.

“Cleveland Clinic is a global organization representing excellence, and we are thrilled that they will now have a direct presence on the Hall of Fame Village campus,” said Michael Crawford, President and CEO of Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company. “As an institution that is always at the forefront of modern medicine, Cleveland Clinic will offer the participants of our events world-class care that reflects the organization’s deep expertise in sports-related medicine. We look forward to working with Cleveland Clinic on many opportunities that exist within our Hall of Fame Village campus.”

Last year, Cleveland Clinic celebrated its 100-year anniversary. In its first century, Cleveland Clinic achieved several medical firsts, opened facilities outside of northeast Ohio and has been repeatedly ranked among the best hospitals in the United States.

“We are excited about this relationship, which comes one year after Mercy Hospital – located near the Hall of Fame Village – joined Cleveland Clinic,” said Paul Saluan, M.D., Director of Cleveland Clinic Sports Medicine Outreach and Education. “We look forward to the opportunity to work more closely with the Canton community and visitors to Stark County, through the events at the Hall of Fame Village.”
