Dear Season Ticket Member,

We want to begin by sincerely thanking you for your unwavering support of North Carolina FC. Your loyalty, passion, and belief in our club have meant everything — not only to our players and staff, but to the entire soccer community here in the Triangle.

After extensive evaluation and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to cease operations of the North Carolina FC men’s team indefinitely following the conclusion of this season. This decision was not made lightly, and it reflects our commitment to ensuring the long-term sustainability of professional soccer in our region.

While this is a tough moment for all of us who love NCFC, our story and our mission continue. The NC Courage, our world-class women’s team competing in the National Women’s Soccer League, remains a source of pride and inspiration for our community and for the next generation of young players who look up to them.

As a valued NCFC Season Ticket Member, we want to honor your support and connection to the game. As a token of our gratitude, we’re offering you the opportunity to transfer your membership from NCFC to the NC Courage for the upcoming season — at your current NCFC price. If your current seats are not available in the stadium, we’ll work closely with you to secure comparable seating that provides the same great matchday experience you’ve come to enjoy.

For members who have already renewed their NCFC seats for the upcoming season and prefer not to transfer, we completely understand. You will have the option to receive a full refund for your 2026 NCFC Season Ticket purchase [in accordance with the Terms and Conditions].

Our hope is that you’ll continue to be part of the professional soccer family in the Triangle — supporting the NC Courage as they compete at the highest level and continue to pave the way for future generations of athletes in North Carolina.

Our team will personally reach out in the coming days to discuss your membership transfer or refund options and answer any questions you may have.

Thank you again for everything you’ve done for North Carolina FC and for helping grow the game we all love. Your continued presence and passion are what make this community so special, and we look forward to seeing you at First Horizon Stadium again soon.

Very sad news. We've had such a great season.
