History

{{See also|Houston Sports Park}}

Planning and funding

In March of 2017, local rugby organization and predecessor to the Houston SaberCats, the Houston Strikers publicly announced their plans to build a stadium at the Houston Sports Park located roughly three miles from NRG Park and eight miles from Downtown Houston along the South Freeway.[8] The group also released several other key details such as early renderings, an estimated cost of $10 million, and a 5,000 person initial capacity.

Leading up to the inaugural season of the team, the City of Houston agreed to partially fund a permanent stadium with a contribution of $3.2 million in February 2018. The ownership group expects to invest an additional $12.0 million of their own funds to construct the 3-field, multi-use facility. [9][10] Details of the deal, outlined in Houston City Ordinance 2018-0085, also confirmed the construction on city-owned property in south Houston at Houston Sports Park, with the city maintaining ownership and leasing stadium grounds back to the team for a 43-year term.[11]

Design and construction

On July 8, the Houston SaberCats released new preliminary architectural drawings and a groundbreaking announcement for July 24, 2018 via Instagram and then via press release several days later.[7][6] On July 17, the SaberCats announced naming rights were awarded to Aveva.[12]

The groundbreaking ceremony took place on July 24, 2018, with the mayor of Houston, Sylvester Turner, representing the city.[13]

Facilities

Aveva Stadium's overall facilities will include an 1,200 parking lot and two secondary fields for multipurpose use. While seating capacity exceeds 3,000, the stadium will feature up to 4,000 maximum capacity by utilizing standing room only areas. The venue is primarily the home of the Houston SaberCats professional Rugby team but can accommodate other sports and non-sports events due to the large size of the fields.
