⚽️ A special day for Lafayette soccer.

Today, Lafayette Consolidated Government and PARC unveiled the Deanna Bostick/LYSA Moore Park Soccer Complex sign, honoring a woman who helped introduce soccer to our community and dedicated generations to the sport she loved.

The dedication brought together members of Deanna’s family and the Lafayette soccer community, and more who gathered to celebrate Deanna’s life and legacy.

For the Lafayette soccer community, it was a chance to celebrate “Ma D”—a familiar face on the sidelines and a champion for generations of players and families.

Her name now stands at Moore Park, alongside the community and sport she helped build. We’re proud to celebrate her legacy. 💙
