FC Stars Complex

70 McGovern Blvd, Lancaster, MA 01523

To All FC Stars Families and Visitors,

Please be advised that the land adjacent to the FC Stars Complex (see attached map) that currently houses storage containers is NOT part of the FC Stars Soccer Complex and is under different ownership.  Our neighbors have been very understanding with the constant misuse of their property by FC Stars-associated trespassers, including illegal parking, blocked access for their vehicles, the inappropriate use of their facility dumpster and the use of their property as a public toilet for pets. However, their patience has finally, and understandably, run out. In addition to the embarrassment it causes the club it could also lead to cars being towed and police being involved with trespassers. 

We would also like to remind everyone about our own facility rules that prevent similar inappropriate activity on our property.  Pets are NOT allowed on the complex grounds and we ask that everyone respects this going forward.  It is not your decision whether your pet can attend activities at the complex. Similarly we ask that the dumpster on our facility be reserved for trash generated on site and not used as a public facility to get rid of household items that are no longer wanted.

We thank everyone for their cooperation on these matters.

About the FC Stars Complex

After a comprehensive search for a suitable piece of land, in 2014 FC Stars found an agreement to build its new soccer complex at 70 McGovern Boulevard in Lancaster, Massachusetts.  A 20-acre site was secured to allow for the installation of four synthetic soccer fields with floodlights.  The ceremonial ground breaking took place on May 29, 2014 and construction started in June of 2014 by RAD Sports, the premier installer of synthetic turf fields in the Northeast region. 

Phase 1 includes the first two fields with lights and a 300-car parking lot.  Two fields, floodlights, perimeter walkway and fencing was completed by November 10, 2014 and the facility was used for the first time as a host to the 2014 Nike Friendlies event.

Phase 2, incorporating construction of two additional synthetic turf fields with lights, a pavilion, additional parking, and a connecting roadway was initiated in October 2017 and completed in May 2018.

This facility puts FC Stars in a unique position in Massachusetts and most of the country in providing long-term stability. FC Stars has easy access to fields for practice and games. The complex also enhances the ability to host curriculum development, elite-level training, and fitness sessions to be supervised at one location for teams across our club.
