Football field at Commonwealth Stadium now named Play Alberta Field
Naming rights are part of multi-year agreement between Edmonton Elks, Play Alberta
The Edmonton Elks announced Thursday that the football field at Commonwealth Stadium has been officially named Play Alberta Field.
In a news release, the CFL team said the new field naming rights are part of a broader multi-year agreement with Play Alberta.
Play Alberta is a regulated online gambling platform run by the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC).
The news release said the field naming deal was approved by city council earlier this year. The Elks will retain the revenue from the field naming rights as part of the organization's licence agreement with the City of Edmonton.
Commonwealth Stadium will still retain its current name, as it is owned and operated by the City of Edmonton.
The Elks's home opener will be against the Montreal Alouettes on June 19.
