Louisville City Football Club, often simply referred to as LouCity, is a professional soccer team based in Louisville, Kentucky. The club was established in 2014 and has since become a prominent fixture in the United States soccer scene.
LouCity competes in the United Soccer League (USL) Championship, the second tier of the American soccer pyramid. The club's inception filled a void left by the Orlando City Soccer Club, which moved to Major League Soccer (MLS) in 2015. Louisville City FC is the reserve team for Orlando City SC, providing a platform for young players to develop their skills and gain competitive experience.
The club's colors are purple and gold, and its logo features a stylized fleur-de-lis, a symbol strongly associated with the city of Louisville. The team plays its home games at the Lynn Family Stadium, a soccer-specific stadium that opened in 2020 and can accommodate over 15,000 spectators.
Since its foundation, LouCity has been a consistent performer in the USL Championship. The club won back-to-back league titles in 2017 and 2018, becoming the first team in the league's history to achieve this feat. In addition to these championships, LouCity has consistently reached the playoffs, demonstrating a level of consistency and success that has earned them a dedicated fan base.
The club is known for its strong community ties and commitment to youth development. It operates a successful academy system, providing opportunities for young players in the Louisville area to develop their skills and potentially progress to the first team.
The club's success on the field and its commitment to the local community have helped to establish Louisville City FC as a respected and popular club within American soccer.
