Lexington Sporting Club has found a (temporary) home.

The professional soccer team just announced they signed a multiyear deal with Georgetown College to host home games at Toyota Stadium. The team’s permanent home is still up in the air, pending the City’s approval of a proposed ~$20 million complex on Athens Boonesboro Rd.

Did you know? Toyota Stadium was also home to the Cincinnati Bengals’ Summer Training Camp from 1997-2011.

For now, the 5,000-seat venue will provide a “fan-friendly atmosphere” said principal owner Bill Shively, as well as a professional environment for the team.

While ticket deposits are sold out for home matches, you can still get on the waitlist to be alerted when spots open up.

Here’s the preliminary home schedule:

⚽ Saturday, April 8 at 7 p.m. vs Forward Madison
⚽ Saturday, April 15 at 7 p.m. vs South Georgia Tormenta FC
⚽ Saturday, April 22 at 7 p.m. vs Greenville Triumph SC
