Sacramento Republic FC News Release


The countdown has officially begun. We are now just 86 days away from the start of the 2026 USL Championship regular season!

Earlier this morning, the league announced each club's home opener for the upcoming campaign. Republic FC is set to open the season against defending Western Conference Champion FC Tulsa on Saturday, March 7 at Heart Health Park.

2026 marks the Indomitable Club's 13th season. In 2025, the team finished second in the Western Conference - a three-place improvement from the year before - and reached the postseason for the 11th time in club history. The team also made history as the first USL Championship team to reach the Final in three separate competitions after advancing to the USL Jägermeister Cup Final.

Republic FC is on an 11-game undefeated streak in season openers dating back to the 2015 season. The club is one of the most dominant and consistent performers on Opening Weekend Last year, Lewis Jamieson led the squad to a 2-1 victory over New Mexico United. His goal marked the sixth straight year that a club debutant scored in the season opener, earning him Week 1 Player of the Week honors.

Additional details on the March 7 match, including kickoff time, broadcast information, and special Opening Night activations, will be announced in the coming weeks. The full 2026 USL Championship schedule is set to be announced soon.
