Fort Wayne FC has opened its inaugural USL League One season with three road matches and will host its first match at Ruoff Mortgage Stadium on May 2 at 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTaking on the naming rights for what will now be Ruoff Mortgage Stadium is a natural and exciting evolution of our partnership with Fort Wayne Football Club,\u201d Ruoff Mortgage President Blake Music said. \u201cWe are thrilled to help lay the foundation for a premier entertainment destination in Northeast Indiana while continuing to support the club\u2019s mission to make the game of soccer more accessible, for old and new fans alike.

The venue will accommodate other sports competitions, concerts, trade shows, and weddings, as it becomes a hub for regional sports and entertainment tourism.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for Fort Wayne FC home matches are currently on sale. In addition to season tickets, single-match tickets and 3- and 6-Match Mini Plans are also available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re pleased to be partnering with Ruoff Mortgage, an organization with a rich history of involvement in sports and entertainment throughout the country,\u201d said Scott Sproat, Chief Operations Officer of Fort Wayne FC. \u201cRuoff Mortgage places tremendous value on partnerships with sports organizations \u2013 such as the NFL, NBA, IndyCar and NASCAR \u2013 and entertainment venues like the beloved Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville. Ruoff Mortgage is dedicated to strengthening the fabric of our communities by pairing expert home financing with deep-rooted local support. This makes Ruoff Mortgage the ideal partner to pair the objectives of our club with the extended benefits that will be brought to our community by Ruoff Mortgage Stadium.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As part of the partnership, Ruoff Mortgage will receive prominent brand integration across Fort Wayne Football Club platforms, including a logo presence on club kits, in-stadium signage, and additional marketing and community-facing initiatives designed to elevate the fan experience and expand the club\u2019s reach throughout Northeast Indiana.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership with Ruoff Mortgage reflects a shared commitment to community engagement, long-term investment, and creating memorable experiences for fans and families across the region.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Fort Wayne Football Club<\/strong><br \/>\nFort Wayne Football Club, founded in 2019, is a professional soccer club playing its first season in USL League One in 2026.
