PHOENIX – Phoenix Rising FC unveiled its new Macron jerseys for the 2018 USL season as it welcomed fans to a special event at the Marquee Theater on Friday night.

The club had earlier in the day announced a new multi-year contract that saw Carvana become the club’s front of jersey sponsor for the 2018-2020 seasons. Carvana’s logo will first appear on the front of the jerseys at the season opener at Orange County SC on Saturday, March 17. 

“We are honored to be partnering with such an innovative and forward-thinking company such as Carvana,” said Rising FC Chief Operating Officer Bobby Dulle. “Their business philosophy is a lot like ours, and we are both in rapid growth phases, so it is a perfect partnership. We also love that they are a locally headquartered company looking for new ways to connect with our community.”

The partnership between Carvana and Phoenix Rising FC includes numerous activations and collaborations, including a Carvana car giveaway at the May 4 Phoenix Rising FC vs. LA Galaxy II match. The May 4 match is also a “blackout" night where fans are encouraged to wear black to the game and the first 3,000 fans will receive a black Phoenix Rising T-shirt provided by Carvana. Within the stadium, Carvana will be featured on prominent signage, as well as host a branded Carvana Corner.

“Carvana is proud to be headquartered in Phoenix, so partnering with Phoenix Rising FC as they make their mark in the Valley of the Sun is exciting,” said Ryan Keeton, Carvana co-founder and chief brand officer. “Both of our organizations aim to deliver an incredible experience, whether for fans or for customers. Now, as partners, fulfilling that promise together is even more meaningful.”

Rising FC's new jerseys are on sale at the club's online store.
