Sacramento Republic FC - Logos, Kits, Stadium
Logo
The Sacramento Republic FC logo was released in 2013 following local community support who could have their say on the name, color and other elements they want for the club. Below is a good description from Wikiepdia that explains all elements.
Republic FC's colors are old glory red, maple, and egg shell. The club crest is a classic shield that honors the Bear Flag, taking several colors from the flag itself. The crest also carries an image of a California grizzly bear, which is found on the state's flag and is California's official state animal, along with a nautical star, which is representative of, and in the same color as, the star on the Bear Flag. Below the bear is the motto of the city of Sacramento, "Urbs Indomita", in Latin meaning "Indomitable City".
Kits
Sacramento Republic FC's first-ever jerseys were made by Lotto. Since 2016, the club is sponsored by Nike.
Sacramento Republic Football Club's home jersey boasts the club's signature color "Old Glory Red". For their away and third kits, Sacramento has been using a range of colors so far, including white, black and blue - the blue Nike Sacramento Republic FC 2019 third kit is closely inspired by the City of Sacramento flag.
The first-ever Sacramento Republic FC MLS kits will be made by Adidas, who signed a league-wide deal with Major League Soccer until at least 2024.
Stadium
Sacramento Republic FC currently plays in Papa Murphy's Park, which has a capacity of 11,569. It is the former home of PRO Rugby team, Sacramento Express.
However, in 2022, when the club will begin playing in MLS, Sacramento Republic FC wants to have completed their own stadium. Sacramento Republic FC will build a new, $300 million, 20,100-seat soccer stadium.
