Miami FC to Play at Lockhart Stadium in 2010

Official Press Release

Miami FC Announces its Home for 2010 Season
The Blues confirm Lockhart Stadium

MIAMI, February 28, 2025 - After splitting its home games between Lockhart Stadium and FIU's stadium in 2009, Miami FC announced today that Lockhart Stadium will be the Blues’ home venue for 2010.

“There have been many great memories at Lockhart Stadium over the years, and we are looking forward to giving fans new memories this season, adding to Lockhart’s great legacy for soccer,” said Miami FC president Aaron Davidson. “Since Lockhart is still considered one of the best facilities for soccer in the United States, we are very fortunate to have the opportunity to play there. After playing at two stadiums last season in order to give fans the opportunity to see Miami FC play closer to their respective homes, we now feel it is best and most effective to establish one home stadium for the team, the fans and the community.”

Lockhart Stadium, built in 1959, has a capacity of 18,500 seats and is regarded as the oldest soccer-specific stadium in North America. The facility has deep roots within the South Florida soccer community, having served as the home venue for several teams including, most notably, the Ft. Lauderdale Strikers of the former North American Soccer League (NASL) and the now-defunct Miami Fusion of Major League Soccer (MLS). The site has also hosted countless international matches, including the United States historic victory over Mexico during the 1980 World Cup qualifying campaign which was their first win over Mexico since 1934.

“We are excited to have professional soccer at Lockhart Stadium for another year. It’s not only something positive for the community but for the students as well,” said Director of Athletics and Activities of Broward County Public Schools (Operator of Lockhart Stadium), Damian Huttenhoff.

Located west of I-95 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, the facility is easily accessible to fans across South Florida.

Miami FC will open the 2010 season on April 10 at 7:30PM at Lockhart Stadium against the visiting Rochester Rhinos.

Miami FC will officially announce ticket sales information tomorrow. For more information, visit www.miamifc.com.
