LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Louisville City FC will give 2016 season ticket holders their first chance to see the new-look roster in action on March 4 with the Club's first-ever Open Training Session. Season ticket holders are invited to enjoy the final 30 minutes of coach James O'Connor's session - starting at 5 p.m. - with an autograph and selfie meet-and-greet immediately following training.

"We're looking forward to seeing our fantastic season ticket holders for our Open Training Session," O'Connor said. "For any Club, the supporters are key. This is an intimate and unique opportunity for the supporters and players to interact. It will be a great experience for the supporters to see the work our boys have been putting in before the season kicks off."

LouCity's training ground (3734 River Road, Louisville, KY, 40207) will host the event, with parking opening at 4:45 p.m. Gates open at 5 p.m. Current season ticket holders can RSVP to attend the Open Training Session by emailing lcfcticketsales@louisvillecityfc.com by noon on March 4.

The meet-and-greet session will conclude at 6 p.m.

Entering the 2016 preseason, Louisville City FC has returned 13 players from the 2015 roster - including reigning USL Goal of the Season winner Aodhan Quinn, former English Premier League striker Cameron Lancaster and several Major League Soccer veterans like defender Ben Newnam and goalkeeper Scott Goodwin. New additions include MLS Cup-winning forward Chandler Hoffman, University of Louisville alumnus Paolo DelPiccolo and University of Kentucky alumnus George Davis IV.

Louisville City FC begins regular season play on March 26 at Charlotte Independence. LouCity then returns to Louisville Slugger Field on April 2 to host New York Red Bulls II in the home opener, with a special 3 p.m. kickoff.

One entry to the Open Training session is allowed per seat on each season ticket account. Season tickets must be purchased by 5 p.m. on March 3 in order to be eligible to attend the Open Training Session. No food or beverage will be permitted on the field; neither strollers nor lawn chairs will be permitted.
