David Tepper, owner of Charlotte FC and the Carolina Panthers, participated in the unveiling of a new "Mini Pitch" at Brookstone Schools in Charlotte on September 28, 2026. During the event, he thanked Ally CEO Michael Rose for the partnership, noting it was the seventh such pitch completed with the company. Tepper said the pitches are personally important to him, mentioning that he coaches soccer for nine-year-olds, and he spoke with students about the meaning of an "ally" in the context of community support. On September 9, 2026, Tepper met with the media ahead of the Panthers' season. He expressed continued belief in quarterback Bryce Young's talent, saying he has "a lot of talent" and could succeed "with the right weapons and the right situation." Tepper also stated he believes the team is "more of a playoff team this year than we were last year coming into it," crediting general manager Dan Morgan and the front office for building depth. He said he wants the franchise to achieve two consecutive winning seasons for the first time in its history, and he expressed trust in the team's management, noting he does not feel the need to be around the facility as much because of that confidence.
