== Stadium ==
 
Nashville FC plays its home matches at '''Chris Jones Park''' in [[Tennessee]], [[USA]]. The stadium has a capacity of '''47,839''' and was last improved on 24 May 2024.
 
The stadium is named in honor of real-world Nashville soccer figure '''Chris Jones''', founder and president of the original supporter-owned Nashville FC, which began in 2013 and competed in the National Premier Soccer League. Jones remained involved as Nashville soccer moved into the professional ranks, serving as general manager of the USL Nashville SC organization and later as Nashville SC's Senior Director of Fan Engagement.
 
== Support ==
 
'''The Roadies''' are the supporters of Nashville FC. As of August 2026, the fan club has '''2,484 members'''.
 
The fan club is named for the real-life Nashville Roadies, an independent supporters group whose roots date to the supporter-owned Nashville FC era. The Roadies emerged in 2014 and continued supporting Nashville soccer as the club progressed from the amateur NPSL side to the professional Nashville SC organization and eventually Major League Soccer.


== Kit ==
The Roadies adopted the motto '''"First in, last to leave,"''' reflecting the group's origins with a supporter-owned club whose volunteers handled everything from setting up before matches to tearing down afterward. The group's name and motto were also inspired by Jackson Browne's song ''The Load-Out''. Beyond matchday support, the Roadies developed a strong community-service mission, including efforts to make soccer more accessible to children in Nashville.


The club's primary kit consists of a gold shirt, navy shorts, and gold socks.
== Sister clubs ==


The shirt has the club crest on the left chest and the kit manufacturer logo on the right chest. The logo of the club's primary sponsor is center chest below the crest. There are also white and navy rings at the cuff of the sleeve and four white chevrons going down the sleeve. The player's name and number are in navy on the back of the shirt.
Nashville FC is the primary club of [[User:Dalepopp|dalepopp]], who also manages three additional Hattrick clubs:


The shorts display the kit manufacturer on the front in white and have four gold chevrons going down the outside of the legs.
* [[Belfast Browns]] ([[Northern Ireland]])
* [[Erbil Citadel]] ([[Al Iraq]])
* [[Kamakura Tigers]] ([[Nippon]])


The socks have two white rings near the top of the sock and the kit manufacturer logo on the back.

== Statistics and records ==
The Roadies are the original independent supporters group for Nashville FC. They are the ones you can’t miss on match days, even if you try. Their motto, “First to Come, Last to Leave”, is lived out as they tailgate hours before each match, march to the stadium during warm-ups, cheer on the Boys in Gold for 90+ minutes, and stay after the match’s conclusion to thank the team. They stand, chant, cheer, sing, bang drums, and wave flags with such gusto that they often lose their voices and complain of aching muscles when it is all over.
