A new supporter group for Real Salt Lake fans

As Real Salt Lake begins defense of their 2009 MLS Cup Championship, excitement is all around the community and building on that excitement is the newest supporters group, The Royal Pride.

The Royal Pride strives to engage soccer fans with both Real Salt Lake and the local community. The Royal Pride promotes fan involvement throughout Rio Tinto Stadium and participates in local community and charity events in an effort to extend the RSL community and increase the excitement for our team.

While still in their infancy the group will be hosting an event this afternoon (1-3pm) at Rio Tinto Stadium in the 100 Lions Club area, so interested people can come out and learn more about the group.  You will also have a chance to have your picture taken with the MLS Cup. (sorry it appears the Cup is missing in action, we hope it will show up later)

The group has a facebook page and a new website

I hope to see you there.
