Rio Tinto no more: Real Salt Lake announces stadium name change
Real Salt Lake announced Saturday that its home stadium in Sandy would be renamed"America First Field," effective immediately.
It's a partnership with America First Credit Union, which RSL representatives said is one of the team's original sponsors since its first season as a Major League Soccer club in 2005. Mining company Rio Tinto, which owns the Kennecott Bingham Canyon Mine, has had naming rights since the stadium opened in 2008.
RSL will take to their newly-named field for the first time just a few hours after the announcement, facing D.C. United at 7:30 p.m.— Real Salt Lake September 10, 2022
