Nearly five months after the Jacksonville Jaguars began practicing in a covered practice facility attached to EverBank Field, the team announced it has secured a naming rights sponsor.
The Jaguars said Thursday that Dream Finders Homes LLC, the Jacksonville-based residential builder and existing team sponsor, would extend its deal to include the naming rights for the covered and outdoor practice facilities at the northwest end of the city-owned stadium.
The covered practice facility is now called the Dream Finders Homes Flex Field at Daily’s Place, with the northern practice area now referred to as the Dream Finders Homes Practice Complex.
“Dream Finders Homes continues to be innovative in their approach to home building, and they have brought this same level of innovation to their partnership with the Jaguars,” Jaguars President Mark Lamping said in a news release.
“The opportunity to partner with an NFL franchise in our home market and support an owner that has demonstrated his commitment to Jacksonville provides us the ability to share the Dream Finders Homes growth story nationally,” Dream Finders Homes CEO and co-founder Patrick Zalupski said in the joint release.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
In 2015, the Jaguars partnered with the city on a $90 million stadium renovation that included the construction of the 6,000-seat Daily’s Place amphitheater and covered “flex field.”
The sponsorship relationship between the team and Dream Finders Homes began in 2014, with the company taking on the “Official Home Builder of the Jaguars” title the following year.
Dream Finders Homes, founded in 2008, has 34 residential communities in Jacksonville and developments in eight other U.S. markets.
The next Jaguars home game is Dec. 3.
