Chasing a first playoff berth, Racing Louisville — a member of the NWSL, the world’s top women’s soccer league — hosts Bay FC in its final home game at Lynn Family Stadium before the league breaks for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
Racing is expected to be represented at the Olympics by several players, including Brazil midfielder Ary Borges and Nigeria forward Uchenna Kanu. Colombia international Elexa Bahr and young New Zealand forward Milly Clegg could also be included in their national teams at the prestigious tournament.
In league play, Racing is off to a strong start, holding a playoff position into the late May break. Louisville has two players, Kanu and star midfielder Savannah DeMelo, among the league leaders in goals, and rookie forwards Emma Sears and Reilyn Turner are off to sensational starts to their professional careers. Led by first-year coach Bev Yanez, a former NWSL star player in her own right, Racing has established itself this season as one of the league’s top attacking teams.
“We are excited to once again push for an attendance record to continue to support the great players and staff of Racing Louisville,” Racing general manager Ryan Dell said. “Fill the Fam has become a staple of our seasons and a great opportunity to show this league what Louisville is made of.”
Stadium gates open an hour before kickoff for LouCity and Racing home games. Fans can arrive early to enjoy the Fan Zone at the open Waterfront end of Lynn Family Stadium.
An award-winning facility in the Butchertown neighborhood, Lynn Family Stadium opened in 2020. It boasts seating in close proximity to the field, ideal sight lines, a view of downtown and a number of amenities, including a state-of-the-art video board and free WiFi.
