Andy Ward
Program Director
Andy Ward serves as the LKY Saints’ Soccer Program Director, and has served as the head middle school coach and an assistant coach for the middle and high school soccer teams. He grew up playing soccer and has been with LKY since its start in 2021; he loves watching his athletes grow over each season as they begin to understand the game and their own strengths and weaknesses better. His vision is to see LKY Saints become a top soccer competitor at the local and national levels, and that they would be known both for their skill and for their Christ-like character and attitude. Andy enjoys reading, watching soccer and North Carolina basketball, playing pickleball, and dreaming of being something better than bad at golf.
Ian Lawrence
Varsity Head Coach
Ian Lawrence, LKY Saints Varsity Boys’ Soccer coach, has been coaching soccer for eight years. He loves not only the game, but also the ability to coach a team grounded in a Christian identity. If you were to ask him his favorite part of coaching soccer, he would be hard pressed to choose just one! The individual and team aspects of the sport, the strategy, the different skills displayed by each position, and the opportunity for both new and seasoned players to excel offer just a few reasons to love the sport. Beyond the game, however, he is passionate about coaching for an organization that focuses on honoring Christ in all things. He and his wife Megan have been married for almost nineteen years and live in Louisville with their four children: Cohen, Isaac, Luke, and Josie.
