Since the Poinsettia Bowl’s game inception in 2005, SDCCU has been the game’s title sponsor, and the Make-a-Wish Foundation of San Diego has been the game’s beneficiary.

The 2009 game, to be played on Wednesday, Dec. 23, will feature a team from the Mountain West Conference against a member of the Pacific-10 Athletic Conference or Western Athletic Conference opponent. The game will be played at 5 p.m. at Qualcomm Stadium, and will be broadcast on ESPN-TV and ESPN Radio. For ticket information, visit www.PoinsettiaBowl.com.
