Edmonton Elks, Play Alberta Connect on New Partnership

Home field advantage has a new name, as the Edmonton Elks announced that Play Alberta Field at Commonwealth Stadium is now the home of the Elks.
The field naming rights are part of a broader multi-year agreement between Play Alberta and the EE, making Play Alberta the official sports betting partner of the Club.
“We couldn’t be more excited to expand our partnership with Play Alberta. This partnership is about more than just putting a name on the field – it’s about building something meaningful for our fans and our community. Play Alberta is an Alberta-based organization that shares our values and our commitment to giving back. Together, we’re creating new ways for fans to connect with our team and experience the game day atmosphere in a whole new way,” said Elks President and CEO Chris Morris.
The expanded relationship between the Elks and Play Alberta will allow the game day experience to continue to grow. Fans can look forward to unique activations and promotions around the stadium, including the chance to win game tickets and memorabilia.
“Since Play Alberta’s launch five years ago, our team has made it a priority to connect with the communities where our players live and work. We are very excited to join the Edmonton Elks on the field on game days during upcoming CFL seasons. Play Alberta Field at Commonwealth Stadium allows us to partner with the Elks and showcase two brands built for Albertans in a historic Edmonton location,” said Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Chief Executive Officer Kandice Machado.
The Elks open their 76th season on Saturday, June 7 in Vancouver when they take on the B.C. Lions. Edmonton’s home opener at Play Alberta Field at Commonwealth Stadium is slated for Thursday, June 19 against the Montreal Alouettes.

AGLC Expanding Access to Self-exclusion Sign-ups
Alberta Gaming, Liquor & Cannabis (AGLC) is improving access to its Self-Exclusion Program. As of January 10, patrons who wish to enroll or renew their agreements within AGLC’s Self-Exclusion Program can do so through a virtual process instead of the previous requirement of going through an in-venue gaming facility or AGLC office.
AGLC’s Self-Exclusion Program can be an important first step in helping people gain control of their gambling behaviors. Players can exclude themselves from casinos, racing entertainment centers, and PlayAlberta.ca for a period between six months up to three years.
“AGLC is pleased to be one of the few jurisdictions in North America to now be offering virtual sign-ups for our Self-Exclusion Program. Allowing players to sign-up online creates greater access to AGLC’s social responsibility tools and resources while supporting patrons that wish to control their gambling should they need to stay away from physical venues,” Kandice Machado, President and CEO of AGLC, said.
To complete the virtual sign-up process, patrons will need to have a valid, government issued identification, email address, and phone number. The process will continue through virtual meetings with AGLC’s Self-Exclusion administration team members.
