We are still the PNG Champions

 Lae City FC is not ready to walk away handing over the Championship on a golden platter aback the momentum we have established as the champion club of Papua New Guinea.  

We are still the Lae City, Morobe and Papua New Guinea Champion Soccer club until the fight is brought to us once more in the field of play. 

For that we are always and forever proud of and owe it to the people of Lae and Morobe province. 


In saying so and today goes down as a momentous milestone for the reigning PNG National Soccer League champion, Lae City FC. 

The 8 times and current NSL champion carry on a legacy raised over a period of 10 years. 

Season 2023 is significant under the inaugural franchise ownership of the municipal authority of the second city of PNG, the Lae City Authority (LCA). 

Lae City Authority through Chairman and Deputy Prime Minister of PNG and member for Lae John Rosso, takes over the reign from the Lae Biscuit Company. 

Lae City Authority has been part and partial of the Lae City FC over the two terms of DPM Rosso and carry’s forth a legacy established as the flagship soccer team of Lae and the Morobe Province.

Lae City FC opens its inaugural NPL season with all due respect to the Lae Biscuit Company and Chairman Ian Chow, but with heavy hearts. Soccer in Papua New Guinea will never have reached one of its highest points in time if it wasn’t for the love of sports by the Chow family in this country. 

And Lae City FC is a standout flagship team of the Morobe province through the Chow family representing not only Lae City but Morobe province as a whole to date. 

It is only rightful that the Lae City Authority retains and advances the legacy of Lae City FC as a dominant player in PNG’s soccer arena reaching out to the Oceania region as well. 

Members of Lae City FC through the years represent pockets of Lae City to the greater Morobe province and PNG as a whole. The football in the team has been an inspiration for PNG as well role models in the various settings of society to the district and provinces respectively. 

Off the field, there is a greater community that looks up to the Lae City FC team and its members as a source of support, motivation and influence. 

The Lae City Authority believes it is high time the legacy established by Lae City FC is kept alive and cemented into the future. 

Thus the Lae City Authority stands proud to back Lae City FC into season 2023.
