On December 8, 2017, Lights FC announced an initiative that showed the club’s commitment to local soccer in Las Vegas. Team owner and C.E.O. Brett Lashbrook guaranteed that at least one roster spot at every point during each season will be reserved for a player with Las Vegas roots and ties.
The program is sponsored by Nevada State College which is the fastest growing college in Nevada & a proud supporter of Lights FC. Be Bold. Be Great. Be State!
