#Announced: Greenville Triumph Soccer Club claims home-field advantage at Legacy Early College
The Greenville Triumph Soccer Club plans to call Legacy Early College home, playing there for up to two years beginning with the team’s inaugural season in 2019.
In the plans for construction:
- Temporary seating for ~4,000 spectators
- A press box for media coverage
- A family zone on game days with games + face painting
- Concessions open to anyone (no ticket required)
The proposal received initial approval from the Greenville County Board of Zoning Appeals at its Nov. 14 meeting. The board’s decision is expected to be finalized at its December meeting, and construction on a temporary stadium will begin.
Greenville Triumph SC will partner with Legacy Early College to:
- Create part-time game day jobs for Legacy scholars.
- Upgrade the soccer field’s playing surface to FIFA compliance.
- Provide for construction of a permanent scoreboard.
Greenville Triumph SC also will create a staff internship position for Legacy scholars beginning this spring and continuing through the first five seasons, and work to market Legacy scholar success stories to raise the profile of the school and its students. There are also free soccer clinics featuring members of the Triumph team planned for neighborhood youth.
The Triumph will play 14-16 home games in its first season starting in March 2019 through September.
