RockHounds & ConocoPhillips Announce Partnership

The RockHounds are pleased to announce that ConocoPhillips will become the team’s presenting sponsor.

The partnership will incorporate ConocoPhillips into virtually all of the team’s branding, marketing and advertising, along with a greater presence in the fan entertainment experience at the ballpark. In becoming the team’s presenting sponsor, ConocoPhillips takes its existing corporate relationship with the RockHounds to a new and higher level, with the goal of furthering the growth of professional baseball in West Texas.

“The RockHounds contribute to the strong sense of community in the Permian Basin and ConocoPhillips is excited to expand our collaboration,” said ConocoPhillips Lower 48 Executive Vice President Nick Olds.

“This partnership is a testament to our shared dedication to fostering pride, igniting passion and embodying the perseverance that fuels both the game and our community.”

ConocoPhillips’ corporate partnership with the RockHounds is well-established. In addition to its existing presence at the ballpark (which will be expanded as presenting sponsor), the company has been instrumental in its support of the franchise’s Country Concerts, which benefit local charities.

“ConocoPhillips has always been a valued partner of RockHounds baseball,” said RockHounds general manager Shelly Haenggi, “and we’re excited that they see the value in expanding that relationship by becoming the team’s presenting sponsor.”

“We believe this will be a great partnership for both of us,“ Haenggi added.

“We share a common interest in being strong members of our community. The RockHounds’ primary goal has always been to provide first class family entertainment and ConocoPhillips’ support of a ‘hometown’ team is a great example of their commitment to the Permian Basin.”
