Raiders sign naming rights deal for Henderson headquarters

Updated December 3, 2019 - 11:47 pm

The Raiders headquarters and practice facility in Henderson has a new name.

Intermountain Healthcare signed a founding sponsorship deal with the Raiders, renaming the facility The Intermountain Healthcare Performance Center.

The site is slated to open in June. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

“We are thrilled to be a partner with the Raiders as we focus on community health,” Intermountain Healthcare president and CEO Marc Harrison said in a statement. “We are committed to working together to bring many positive, vibrant, and sustainable health programs to our communities. With this partnership, Intermountain Healthcare is working to extend its mission to more people — expanding in ways that help people live the healthiest lives possible.”

The deal also names Intermountain Healthcare the official health care partner of the Raiders and a founding sponsor of the $2 billion, 65,000-seat Allegiant Stadium.

Intermountain Healthcare is a regional system of 24 hospitals, 215 clinics, and a medical group with 2,500 employed physicians and advanced practice clinicians. It has operations in Nevada, Utah and Idaho.

The site under construction in Henderson consists of a 135,000-square-foot office area, a 150,000-square-foot field house that will house one-and-a-half indoor football fields and a 50,000-square-foot performance center. There will also be three outdoor football fields on the site.

Henderson officials estimate 250 permanent jobs will be created to run team operations. Many Raiders players, coaches and staff are expected to move near the new facility.

Through their partnership, the Raiders and Intermountain Healthcare say they will focus on new initiatives aimed at improving community engagement, health outcomes and overall well-being for individuals, families and communities.

“We are pleased to welcome Intermountain Healthcare as the naming rights partner for our new, state of the art performance center,” Raiders president Marc Badain said in a statement. “Together, we are aligned in our investment in outreach programs and are committed to improving community and civic health through multiple platforms.”
