Prosper (Texas) High School has landed a naming rights partner for its new $53 million, 12,000-seat stadium.
The school district announced Friday that Dallas-based pediatric healthcare provider Children’s Health has inked a 10-year, $2.5 million deal for the naming rights to the stadium.
Children’s Health will pay $250,000 per year to the Prosper Independent School District.
As part of the agreement, Children’s Health doctors will be present on the sideline with Prosper athletic trainers during varsity football games.
Prosper will be the only high school in the state with a portable X-ray machine in the stadium and the first to have a sideline ER tent, according to NBCDFW.
The deal also makes Children’s Health the official pediatric health care provider for the school district.
Texas has seen its share of outsized naming rights deals for a number of extravagant stadiums. The Prosper deal follows a similar agreement forged between PlainsCapital Bank and Lubbock Independent School District. PlainsCapital has agreed to a $3 million deal over 10 years. Katy Independent School District and Academy Sports + Outdoors agreed to a 10-year deal for $2.5 million.
