HONOLULU (AP) — The field at Aloha Stadium has been renamed after a credit union purchased a three-year deal for the naming rights.
The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reports that the field is now officially the Hawaiian Tel Federal Credit Union Field at Aloha Stadium. The credit union will pay $275,000 per year as part of the agreement.
That price is much lower than the $2.5 million Hawaii Airlines paid over the course of its five-year naming rights deal that expired in December.
Officials have cited declining attendance at UH games as a factor in the drop.
The new name will be displayed on the field’s new $1.2 million artificial turf in time for the University of Hawaii season opener against Tennessee Martin on Sept. 10.
