The Dallas Cowboys new Indoor Training Facility in Frisco, Texas plans to seat a minimum of 12,000 fans for games, says Brad. The practice facility will also be a multi-use facility that can be refigured to accommodate 22,000 seats for other events like concerts.
Current plans are that the Frisco ISD will have use of the facility on Thursday and Friday evenings for football games. As the first school district in the state with an indoor stadium, it will also be an attractive destination for “Blue Star Stadium” to host potential Texas playoff games as well. As a former football mom, I can only imagine how happy those Frisco football moms are — no more freezing games, no more mud caked cleats!
-The stadium must have a master scoreboard with full video replay capabilities, a professional-quality sound system, an NFL-approved playing field with synthetic turf, a press box, broadcast booths for radio and TV, accommodations for at least two coaching booths, one ring of suite seating and-or a club seating area with armchair seats, and an NFL-quality training room.
-The Cowboys will employ at least 150 full-time employees in Frisco and pay Frisco an annual lease payment of at least $100,000.
-Frisco ISD will have exclusive use of the stadium between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays during football season, on Saturdays during the postseason, a day in May for the district’s pin ceremony and a Friday and Saturday in June for graduation ceremonies.
