“We are thrilled the KFC YUM! Center will bear the name of a locally-based, international company, and look forward to a long partnership with YUM! Brands. We are deeply grateful to E. J. Narcise and his colleagues at Team Services for their perseverance through a challenging economic environment to secure the naming rights agreement. It is certainly one of the best naming rights agreements in collegiate sports, and perhaps more important – it is the most appropriate naming rights agreement for this facility and this community.”

-- Jim Host, Chairman, Louisville Arena Authority

Team Services is proud to represent the University of Colorado-Boulder and Buffalo Sports Properties for the football stadium naming rights selection process. The partnership is a unique opportunity to align a company and brand with the region’s largest university and one of college football’s most successful programs. The Buffaloes are top-30 all-time among NCAA programs in wins, winning percentage, and bowl-appearances. CU is also one of only a handful of teams to have both a National Championship (1990) and a Heisman Trophy winner (Rashaan Salaam – ’94). Colorado’s stadium naming rights partner will be a part of an exciting new era of Buffaloes football. In 2011, CU will enter the ultra-competitive Pac-10 (future Pac-12) Conference. This new conference membership will bring NCAA powerhouses such as USC, Stanford, Oregon, UCLA and Cal to Boulder each season, and will extend visibility for the program and its partners throughout some of the nation’s largest metropolitan markets – Los Angeles, San Francisco, Phoenix, Seattle, Denver, etc. We are pleased to help CU write this new chapter in its storied history.
