3.5 Department of Athletics

3.5.A Athletics Background

UNC competes in the Atlantic Coast Conference (“ACC”) and fields teams in 28 Men’s and Women’s sports. UNC is considered to be among the premier athletic departments in the country and competes in one of the most competitive conferences in all of college athletics. Games that are played on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are a great opportunity for UNC’s student athletes to compete in their chosen sport and represent the University in intercollegiate competition.

6

The Tar Heels have won 43 NCAA team championships in seven different sports, including 21 women's soccer, six field hockey, six men's basketball, five men's lacrosse, two women's lacrosse, two men's soccer and one women's basketball. In addition, the Helms Foundation declared the 1923-24 men's basketball team national champions, the women's soccer team won the AIAW national title in 1981, the women's tennis team won ITA indoor national tournaments in 2013 and 2015 and the men’s tennis team won the ITA indoor national title in 2016. Carolina is tied for eighth in NCAA history with 43 NCAA championships (13 men’s and 30 women’s). Carolina has won more NCAA championships than any other Atlantic Coast Conference school. Carolina has won 270 Atlantic Coast Conference championships. Thirteen different sports have won 10 or more titles, including women's indoor and outdoor track and field (29), men's tennis (25), women's soccer (21), field hockey (19), men's basketball (18), men's swimming and diving (17), wrestling (17), women's swimming and diving (16), men’s lacrosse (13), volleyball (13), men's golf (11) and baseball (10).

Additionally, games held on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are an opportunity for the University to host and entertain students and their parents, alumni and fans, as well as the local and distant community. Football games played in Kenan Stadium bring close to 51,000 people together six or seven times a year for a campus wide event, men’s basketball games played in the Dean E. Smith Center bring over 20,000 people together approximately 17 times each year.

These events are vehicles for the University and the town to showcase all that makes UNC and the community of Chapel Hill one of the top public university settings in the country. The campus and community additionally benefit from the economic impact of these events. For example, an economic impact study conducted by Dr. Coyte Cooper of the UNC at Chapel Hill Department of Exercise and Sports Science conservatively estimated that the overall economic impact of the UNC vs. football game on Thursday, October 17, 2013, was over $5.1 million for the Chapel Hill community. The UNC Department of Athletics has worked to identify any and all opportunities to enhance the overall game day experience at all sporting events for all fans. In-venue merchandise sales has been identified as one of the ways in which the overall game day experience can be enhanced. The goal of this effort is to improve the in-venue merchandise sales options to fans and donors of UNC Athletics to enhance their overall game day experience in Chapel Hill and to increase the revenues generated from that effort for the Department of Athletics.

SECTION 4: ATHLETICS MASTER PLAN SUMMARY

In January of 2015 the Department of Athletics completed a Facilities Master Plan. The Athletics Master Plan is a multi-year vision which focuses on the needs of Carolina student-athletes as well as an enhanced experience for Tar Heel fans, students, alumni, staff and donors. The Master Plan will be updated accordingly on an annual basis.

Through the Master Planning process the Department of Athletics identified several possible capital projects. With the exception of the Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center, the Dean E. Smith Center and Kenan Memorial Stadium all capital renovations are currently underway and the Operator may have the ability to negotiate design features that affect merchandise sales. Below are the following projects currently underway and projects currently being discussed:

 Indoor Practice Facility – no projected in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected completion date: Fall 2018  Field Hockey stadium – very minor projected in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected completion date: Fall 2018  Practice Field Complex – no projected in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected completion date: Fall 2018  Soccer/Lacrosse Stadium – possible in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected completion Date: Fall 2018  Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center – very minor projected in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected start date: TBD  Dean E. Smith Center (Men’s Basketball) – major in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected start date: TBD  Kenan Stadium renovation – major in-venue merchandise sales component o Expected start date: TBD

Due to the unknown nature and timing of the Dean E. Smith Center and Kenan Stadium renovations, all bidding Operators should base their proposal on the existing Men’s Basketball and Football facilities.

UNC has initiated this Request for Proposal process and is seeking an innovative and proactive partner that is on the cutting-edge of in-venue merchandise sales services to effectively serve the UNC community. UNC’s goal is to provide innovative, state-of-the-art in-venue merchandise sales services that will result in the following:
