The City of Brandon has awarded Sunrise Credit Union the naming rights to the clubhouse at the Canada Packers Sports Complex on the North Hill.
Still under construction, the Sunrise Credit Union Clubhouse will have a canteen, along with washrooms and changerooms. It will open in early May 2026.
“By supporting this project through the clubhouse naming rights sponsorship, Sunrise Credit Union reaffirms its commitment to backing worthwhile initiatives that enhance our communities,” Sunrise Credit Union president and CEO Tim Klassen said in a press release.
“The construction of Brandon’s outdoor sports complex is a landmark moment for our community,” Klassen said.
Brandon Mayor Jeff Fawcett said the city is proud to partner with the credit union.
“Through this partnership, the Sunrise Credit Union Clubhouse … will become a welcoming space where families, friends and neighbours can connect, stay active, and celebrate what makes Brandon such a great place to live,” Fawcett said in the release.
The sports complex, located at the corner of First Street North and Veterans Way, opened this summer. It features a FIFA-regulation soccer field, up to eight 11 v 11 soccer fields, one dedicated 9 v 9 soccer field, a cricket pitch and 3.6 kilometres of pathways.
Known as the Maple Leaf Foods Sports Complex up until last month, the complex is expected to cost a total of $19.6 million once construction is complete. The cost is shared between the city, the provincial government ($6.6 million) and Ottawa ($3.9 million).
The clubhouse itself is expected to cost $3.8 million.
