Kyle Football Field

The two-year renovation transformed the stadium into a modern, high-capacity venue while preserving its historic character and enhancing the game-day experience for more than 100,000 fans.

Britt Rice Electric LP entered into a Joint Venture with Walker Engineering Inc. to deliver the full electrical scope of this landmark project. Our team supported one of the largest stadium builds in Texas, providing power distribution, sports lighting, life-safety systems, and infrastructure required for premium seating, technology upgrades, and major-event operation.

• Technology upgrades: Installation of large high-definition video boards, new sports lighting, and an advanced stadium-wide Wi-Fi system that set national usage records.
• Efficient construction: Prefabricated components and fast-track methods enabled completion in just over two years without interrupting the football season.
