First Community Credit Union and Space Cowboys Announce New Partnership

First Community Credit Union (FCCU), a member-driven and community focused financial institution that reaches 41 counties in Texas, and the Sugar Land Space Cowboys have announced a new multi-year partnership that will enable both entities to continue to positively impact Fort Bend County and beyond.

First Community will now serve as the official credit union and banking partner of the Sugar Land Space Cowboys. Additionally, FCCU has acquired the naming rights to the club level at Constellation Field with the ‘First Community Club’ set to debut during the Space Cowboys next homestand.

As part of their commitment to the community, First Community will now also serve as the sponsor for the Space Cowboys Reading Program, which in 2025 reached 120 schools across 16 districts with over 80,000 students participating and reading more than 100,000 books. First Community will also sponsor a ‘Student Athlete of the Month’ and offer yearlong discounts to Space Cowboys games for FCCU members and employees.

“As a credit union deeply rooted in education and guided by our people‑helping‑people philosophy, we are proud to launch this multi‑year partnership with the Sugar Land Space Cowboys,” said FCCU President and CEO TJ Tijerina. “Community is one of our five foundational pillars, and this collaboration strengthens our ability to connect with and serve individuals and families throughout Fort Bend County and beyond as we advance that commitment.”

“We’re excited to see what possibilities this new partnership will unlock for us and First Community in the years to come,” said Space Cowboys General Manager Tyler Stamm. “As an organization that is always looking for new and different ways to expand our reach in our community, partnering with a local institution like First Community that aligns with our vision made this a fantastic fit for both of us.”
