The San Diego Legion has made an exciting announcement for the upcoming season, revealing that they will be moving to a new stadium. Snapdragon Stadium will no longer be their home as they are set to return to Torero Stadium at the University of San Diego.
This move back to Torero Stadium holds special significance as it was the venue where the team played during their inaugural 2018 season and in 2019. The decision to return to Torero Stadium for most of their 2025 regular season matches was made with the fans in mind, aiming to provide an intimate and fan-focused environment for all supporters.
David Haigh, the CEO of the San Diego Legion, expressed his enthusiasm for the move, stating, “We’re excited to return to Torero Stadium, where we have a strong history of success and a loyal fan base. We’re committed to creating the best experience for our fans in 2025, and we believe that Torero Stadium will offer the best venue for our fans and players in 2025.”
While most regular-season matches will be held at Torero Stadium, playoff games may still take place at Snapdragon Stadium, offering fans the opportunity to experience games at both venues. The Legion has been enjoying growing support, with the 2024 season seeing a record attendance of 12,085 fans, showcasing the passion and dedication of their fanbase.
The move to Torero Stadium is not just a logistical change but a strategic decision to enhance the overall fan experience and create a closer connection between the team and its supporters. The intimate setting of Torero Stadium is expected to foster a more engaging and interactive environment for fans to fully immerse themselves in the excitement of rugby matches.
As the San Diego Legion gears up for the 2025 season, fans can look forward to a renewed sense of community and camaraderie at Torero Stadium, where memories of past victories and shared moments with fellow supporters will reignite the passion for the sport. With the upcoming season poised to be a thrilling and fan-centric experience, the Legion is ready to make their mark in their new-old home at Torero Stadium.
