The Republic hosted its first match at Heart Health Park on June 20, 2014. Heart Health Park is the home stadium for the Sacramento Republic FC soccer team of the USL. The team benches and premium seating are located along the west sideline. The north endline is home to the Tower Bridge Battalion, the SRFC supporters group. Heart Health Park is open-ended, with the south endline lacking a grandstand but hosting the VIP section. On May 5, 2021, the Sacramento Republic FC and Western Health Advantage agreed to a new naming rights deal that would change the name of the stadium to Heart Health Park. On March 9, 2017, Republic FC announced that the facility would be renamed Papa Murphy's Park, in a multi-year naming rights agreement with Papa Murphy's. The name of the stadium was originally Cal Expo Multi-Use Sports Field Facility, but on April 21, 2014, Republic FC President Warren Smith announced a multi-year deal with Bonney Plumbing, Heating, Air and Rooter Service for the naming rights of the stadium and the name was changed to Bonney Field.

Original schedules put the grand opening for the Republic FC's June 7 match against Arizona United, but that date was postponed two weeks, with the grand opening falling instead on June 20, when the Republic FC played the reserve team of the Colorado Rapids in a match that ended in a victory for the Republic. Funding for the stadium came from an agreement between Ovations Food Services, Cal Expo, and the Republic FC. The field is located on the former site of the Cal Expo Amphitheatre, and is bordered on the west and south by the Cal Expo monorail, and on the east by Raging Waters water park.Ĭonstruction of the stadium began in March 2014, following approval by the Cal Expo Board of Directors.
