History of the Republic FC

Sacramento Republic FC is an American professional soccer team based in Sacramento, California, that plays in the Western Conference of the USL Championship. Co-founded by Warren Smith and Joe Wagoner in 2012, the team started to play in 2014 at Hughes Stadium, a 20,231-seat stadium. They moved mid-season to their current home at Heart Health Park. Since then, Republic FC won the 2014 USL championship and made the playoffs four times.

With fan support and attendance, the team prepared an expansion bid for Major League Soccer, which was submitted in January 2017. On May 15, 2017, MLS bid proponent Sac Soccer & Entertainment Holdings, led by Kevin Nagle, officially acquired Sacramento Republic FC from the president and co-founder Warren Smith. On October 21, 2019, MLS announced that Sacramento Republic will be the 29th team in MLS, originally slated to start in 2022, later pushed to 2023. However, on February 26, 2021, it was announced that the expansion to the MLS was placed on indefinite hiatus. The team is working with the city of Sacramento to build a $226 million stadium in the large Railyards urban infill project.
