Turns out Lorde was wrong.

Because we will in fact be ROYALS. Our sister company, RSL, announced today that Utah’s new NWSL team will be called The Utah Royals FC

We made the announcement early this morning with special guest-star Rihanna

According to rsl.com, the first match will be Saturday, April 14 (kickoff time TBD).

How much will tickets go for?

“General seating on the primary level of Rio Tinto Stadium’s lower bowl ranges from $120 to $300 for the 12-game home season.”

In case you missed it, we were able to chat with Royals’ coach Laura Harvey yesterday and she’s fascinating. Most winningest women’s soccer coach in the league. Check out the interview on our podcast.
