SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Republic FC announced today that FOX40 will return as the club's Official Broadcast Partner for the 2023 season. Beginning with the team's season opener on March 11, fans can stream all 34 of the club's USL Championship matches on FOX40.com and the FOX40 News mobile app, as well as the station's digital Antenna TV 40.2. Select matches will also be available on FOX40, including the club's first three home matches on March 18, March 25, and April 1 with more matches to be announced throughout the season.

"FOX40 has consistently played an integral role in helping Republic FC grow our fan base, drive viewership and matchday attendance, and shine a spotlight on community initiatives," said Republic FC Chief Revenue Officer Dustin Vicari. "We are thrilled to extend our partnership with FOX40 to continue to create an even bigger impact - in viewership and in our shared commitment to the Sacramento community, and beyond."

"All of us at KTXL-TV/FOX40 are proud to continue as the indomitable broadcast and streaming home for Sacramento Republic FC. The club continues to dramatically grow in its community presence and at FOX40 we pride ourselves on strong community involvement so the continued partnership was a no-brainer," said FOX40 Vice President and General Manager Scot Chastain. "FOX40 is the home of NFL, MLS, NASCAR, College Football, and the upcoming 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. Having Republic FC continue on our air and our digital properties truly makes FOX40 THE sports destination. We also salute the club on celebrating its 10th season!"

The partners will continue to provide a free multi-platform broadcast schedule for each of Republic FC's league matches on FOX40.com and the FOX40 News mobile app - available on Apple and Android devices, as well as FOX40's Antenna TV digital channel, over-the-air at 40.2, on Comcast Cable channel 382, Charter Communications channel 199, Volcano Vision channel 441, and Consolidated Communications channel 172.

In the booth for Republic FC's 10th season will be Play-by-Play Announcer Rob McAllister, who has been on the call for the club since its inception - and former Republic FC midfielder Adam Moffat who returns for his second season as the club's full-time Match Analyst. The Indomitable Club's all-time leading scorer Cameron Iwasa will also join the broadcast for select matches throughout the year. Spanish broadcasters Armando Botello and Milton Moreno return for their sixth season together, along with Sal Acevedo providing additional support. The Spanish broadcast will be available for every match and can be accessed through the SAP function on viewer TVs, or by selecting the Spanish feed on FOX40.com and the mobile app.

In addition to Republic FC matches, the two organizations will team up to provide special coverage of the upcoming 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, which will be broadcast on Fox 40. Fox40 also will broadcast 15 Major League Soccer regular-season matchups this season.
