Phoenix Rising FC (USLC) (2017–present) |
Casino Arizona Field, formerly known as Phoenix Rising Soccer Complex, is a 15.8-acre soccer-specific training and stadium facility located in the Salt River Pima–Maricopa Indian Community near Tempe, Arizona.[1][2] It is the home of Phoenix Rising FC of the USL Championship. The complex has a 6,200-seat temporary stadium with luxury suites, separate training field, and parking area and is privately funded.[3][4][5]
History[edit]
The first game at the complex was held on March 25, 2017, when Rising FC hosted Toronto FC II in front of a crowd of 6,890 fans.[6] They won their first game at the stadium on April 8 by defeating LA Galaxy II 2–1. Luke Rooney scored both goals, the first one on a penalty kick. They were the first goals scored by the team in their new stadium.[7]
On March 15, 2019, Casino Arizona signed a multi-year sponsorship deal with Rising FC, including naming rights to the stadium, now called Casino Arizona Field.[8][9]
