A long-vacant Scottsdale Unified School District campus in southern Scottsdale may finally rise from the ashes with the help of the Valley’s professional soccer club.

The Phoenix Rising is in negotiations with the district to turn the former Tonalea Elementary campus into a practice facility for the team.

The USL Championship league team currently plays its home games about four miles away from the Tonalea site at Casino Arizona Stadium at Mclintock Drive and Loop 202.
