Wallis Annenberg, president of the Annenberg Foundation, will have her name on the new soccer stadium her foundation is partially funding.
The new soccer-specific home for the UCLA men's and women's soccer teams will be named after a Philadelphia native.
Construction of Wallis Annenberg Stadium, to be completed in phases as money is raised, is projected to begin this fall. The 3,000-seat stadium will be built at North Athletic Field, which is currently used for intramural and club sports.
The Annenberg Foundation, which moved from Radnor, Pa. to Los Angeles in 2009 after the death of Leonore Annenberg, has pledged half of the $10 million needed to pay for the privately funded project.
