⚽️ has unveiled its official club name as well as its new crest. As a Lexington resident and father of a child that plays club soccer in the city, I’m a big fan of this direction and I’m happy they didn’t go with Kentucky blue which is very cliché here.

The primary green is somewhat reminiscent of jockey silks which is owned by the club owner.

The brand was designed by the talented Chris Payne aka Football Brand Designer.

The man that put the orange on the Nike shoebox. Thank you. RIP.
