Excited to be working with 399 players this Fall (341 Fall Recreation players and 58 Travel Teams Players). Our U4-U15 Recreation program, and our U14B, U16G, and U18G are looking forward to a great Fall season. We want to continue to grow as a club, so if your player is interested in playing, or you're interested in getting involved as an admin, coach, or active member in the club reach out to us! We will provide you the information to get involved! LRFC is YOUR club. It's OUR hometown and we want to put our best foot forward TOGETHER! Looking forward to seeing our smiling faces out this fall, and to seeing some new players and parents join our club in 2026-2027.

TRAVEL TEAMS UPDATE!!! We're excited to announce that our U18 Girls, U16 Girls, and U14 Boys will be competing at the NC Fusion Adidas Clash Tournament this November! Our girls and boys will be playing in High Point, Winston Salem, and/or Browns Summit, or Asheboro this coming Fall! This is another step in the Player Pathway where players make the move from Recreation to our Travel Teams program, gaining more exposure, more opportunities, and a higher level of competition to help drive player development. As we continue to grow as a club, we plan on growing our facilities as well as opportunities available to children of our area! If you haven't considered joining our Travel Teams program yet, you may want to. Looking forward to a great Fall season of North Carolina Youth Soccer Association Classic League play, as well as all of our Fall Tournament series!

It's so disappointing to have to turn away kids from our recreation program. We are so thankful to have the 353 players we have coming in this fall, but there are so many more that would love to play that we've had to turn away. We can't say thank you enough to the City of Lumberton, NC Government and the Lumberton Recreation Department for working to provide more fields at NE Park for these children. We also want to again say thank you to UNC Health Southeastern for continuing to support our program, and the overall health and wellness of all the kids coming up in our area. We hope to continue to be able to serve more kids once the fields are completed, and moving into the 2027-2028 playing season.
