Philadelphia Lone Star F.C. is a nonprofit American professional development soccer club based in Southwest Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Founded in 2001 as Junior Lone Star FC by West African immigrants and rebranded in 2018, the club competes in the National Premier Soccer League and the United Premier Soccer League, both regarded as fourth-tier on the U.S. Soccer Pyramid. It operates multiple squads—First Team, Reserves (U-23s), and youth levels (Academy U-19s, U-17s, U-15s)—along with a team in Liberia, West Africa, and emphasizes soccer and educational training for disadvantaged youth and young adults in the community. The organization serves a local and regional audience seeking development opportunities in soccer through its club structure and educational programs, while maintaining a presence online and across social media platforms. A notable development in recent years includes leadership appointments for game day operations and coaching roles, reflecting ongoing organizational growth and program expansion.
