STAFF REPORT
The San Marcos Academy (SMA) Bears began football practice Monday as final touches were put on their stadium to reflect a corporate sponsorship from A+ Federal Credit Union (FCU).
SMA reached the sponsorship deal with A+ FCU for the school’s football, baseball and softball programs in May. The A+ FCU name also will appear on the baseball and softball stadiums.
This month, SMA announced a deal with Chick-Fil-A to sponsor the school’s basketball and volleyball programs.
SMA officials said A+ FCU was an “anchor” sponsor for the school’s athletic program and for the school’s Bear Club. Since May, the Bear Club has grown from 25 company sponsors to about 70.
