The new 4,200-seat arena attached to Sharks Ice is expected to open in August as home for the American Hockey League team.
Sharks Ice at San Jose has signed on Tech CU as the name sponsor for the arena being built for the San Jose Barracuda hockey team, in a 10-year deal approved by the San Jose City Council on Tuesday.
The new 4,200-seat Tech CU Arena at Sharks Ice at San Jose — or Tech CU Arena — is expected to open in August, attached to the ever-growing ice-skating facility on the corner of 10th Street and Alma Avenue. You might as well call that area “Credit Union Corner” with all the sports facilities around there bearing names of financial institutions.
Besides Tech CU Arena, there’s also Excite Ballpark — the former Municipal Stadium that’s home to the San Jose Giants — and CEFCU Stadium, which many of us still think of as Spartan Stadium, across the street from Sharks Ice. Not do be outdone, Provident Credit Union snagged the naming rights for San Jose State’s Event Center on campus.
By the way, the council approval happened a couple of weeks later than expected because it was noticed that while the longer, official name of the arena included “San Jose,” the exterior signage planned for the facility did not. The resolution passed Tuesday includes wording that will require Sharks Ice to include the city’s name on exterior signage in any future naming-rights agreements for the city-owned facility.
The online ceremony will honor the following schools and individuals: LUCHA Elementary School in Alum Rock School District ; Luther Burbank Middle School ; Mountain View High School ; Yonit Parenti of Easterbrook Discovery School ; Matthew Leffler of Baseball Buddies ; José Valdés Math Institute ; Elena Robles, Folklórico Nacional Mexicano .
