Lenexa City F.C. has officially revealed a new club badge, marking the start of a fresh chapter for the soccer club under the leadership of new owner Trent Little. The change comes after a request from the City of Lenexa, which wished the club success but preferred that none of its official city seal be used in the club’s branding.
The old badge, reflective of the city’s seal, was a familiar sight to Lenexa City F.C. supporters, but the redesign aims to embrace a more distinctive identity for the club. Little, a passionate advocate for preserving local history, saw the transition as an opportunity to honor the area's deep roots.
The club wanted to create something that resonates with the history of this land and the people who first called it home. While the club respected the city’s wishes, it also gave it the chance to design something that speaks to the heritage and spirit of the community.
The new badge retains the star, a nod to Lenexa's place in the Kansas City metropolitan area but introduces a bold tomahawk at its center. The tomahawk celebrates the area’s American Indian roots, a tribute to the Shawnee and other Native American tribes that historically inhabited the region. The design’s modern, clean lines give the badge a fresh yet timeless look.
The club hopes this new identity will further strengthen its ties to the Lenexa community. With plans underway for the 2025 season, including potential updates to the club’s home pitch and kits, Lenexa City F.C. is setting its sights on growing its following in the city while building a culture of unity and pride through the sport.
The new badge is more than just a symbol for our the club. It’s a reflection of who we are and where we come from. We're excited to see our supporters rally around it as we move into the future.
The unveiling of the badge hopes to generate a wave of excitement among fans, and it represents one of the many steps Lenexa City F.C. is taking to reestablish itself as a core part of the local sports landscape. With a new owner and a refreshed identity, the club is eager to start the 2025 season and make an impact both on and off the pitch.
