The University of Idaho's Kibbie Dome has a new name.

A Northwest-based credit union is slated to take the naming sponsorship of the ASUI-Kibbie Activity Center on the University of Idaho Moscow campus. An Idaho State Board of Education special meeting approved the official name change.

The new name is the P1FCU Kibbie Dome.

A news release from the university quote P1FCU President and CEO Chris Loseth, "P1FCU is honored to enter into this partnership with the university. The University of Idaho partnership and P1FCU Kibbie Dome naming sponsorship creates a great opportunity to further invest in young adults and empower them through a high-impact, high-value financial literacy education with support from our staff."

The naming sponsorship is for 10 years and includes a variety of financial literacy sponsorships for students. “P1FCU is an ideal partner for the University of Idaho because we share a deep commitment to educating and empowering the people we serve,” said U of I President Scott Green. “It’s exciting to work with them expand their commitment to the Vandal Family. Together, we will further strengthen and elevate the university community.”

The P1FCU sponsorships will focus on two student financial success programs. The first is Better Education About Money for Students (BEAMS) which teaches financial education and provides individualized coaching programs that sets students up for financial success through financial knowledge and skills. The second focuses on student-athletes. Now that student-athletes can potentially make money through the advent of Name, Image, Likeness (NIL). This program pairs Law Entrepreneurship Law Clinic, College of Business and Economics Idaho Entrepreneurs program, and student-athletes to help maximize their opportunities with NIL.
