Atlanta United’s training ground in Marietta will carry the name of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta in an agreement announced by both parties on Thursday. Contract terms weren’t disclosed.
The $60 million training ground is under construction and will be named The Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Training Ground. Though the fields are mostly ready and have been used, the building is expected to open in April.
Additionally, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta will be the club’s official pediatric healthcare system and pediatric sports-medicine program.
Atlanta United’s academy includes teams from the Under-12 level through Under-18 years of age.
The team will open its inaugural season Sunday hosting the New York Red Bulls at Georgia Tech’s Bobby Dodd Stadium at 7:30 p.m.
