Lexington, KY – Lexington Sporting Club is excited to announce Chick-fil-A as an official partner of the club. This partnership brings an enhanced game-day experience for fans and increased visibility for Lexington SC throughout the community.
“We are excited to partner with Chick-fil-A to enhance the fan experience at both the stadium and youth complex,” said CEO Kim Shelton. “This collaboration supports our mission to connect with Central Kentucky families and create unforgettable moments on and off the pitch.”
As part of the partnership, Chick-fil-A will be on-site for the majority of match days, selling their best-selling Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich for fans to enjoy. Along with this, Chick-fil-A offers “Score on a Set-Piece, Get an 8-Piece.” Every time Lexington SC scores a goal from a set-piece—whether a free kick, corner kick, or penalty kick—every fan in attendance will receive a free 8-piece nugget from Chick-fil-A which will be redeemable on the Chick-fil-A app. This initiative rewards fans for the club’s precision and teamwork while adding another layer of excitement to every match.
Additionally, Chick-fil-A will feature a variety of in-store marketing to showcase its partnership with Lexington SC. Fans visiting these locations will see the club’s branding on items such as tray liners, table toppers, drive-thru bag inclusions, and more, ensuring Lexington SC remains a strong presence in the local community.
“Chick-fil-A is excited to announce our partnership with the Lexington Sporting Club,” said Chris Mandell, Chief Operating Officer for CFA East Lexington. “We are passionate about making a difference in the Lexington community, and we believe Lexington SC will be a great partner in accomplishing this mission. Chick-fil-A can’t wait to see you all on game days at the stadium!”
Chick-fil-A joins a growing list of partners dedicated to supporting Lexington SC and its mission of uniting the region through soccer. Fans can take advantage of the “Score on a Set-Piece, Get an 8-Piece” promotion starting March 1, 2025, when the USL Super League Women’s team takes on Brooklyn FC for an exciting home opener to the 2025 Spring Season.
