Real Salt Lake announced today the permanent hiring of John Kimball as club president, who has been acting as interim president since Dell Loy Hansen announced his intention to sell the team in September 2020.
Kimball was one of the first employees at Real Salt Lake under then-owner Dave Checketts in 2004, and prior to returning to Real Salt Lake, he served as president of Vivint Arena, home of the Utah Jazz.
From a club-issued release, RSL co-owner David Blitzer:
We very much want to acknowledge the phenomenal job done over the last year-plus by John Kimball and the entire staff, as this team of people are obviously committed every day to building a world-class organization, winning championships, investing in the growth and success of the sport at all levels.
