Adam Luckhurst
Adam Luckhurst (born June 27, 2002) is an English-American professional footballer who currently plays for Sporting Club Jacksonville.[1]
Early life
[edit]Luckhurst was born on June 27, 2002, in Duluth, Georgia to former Atlanta Falcons placekicker Mick Luckhurst and Ruth Luckhurst. He attended Bishop Garcia Diego High School in Santa Barbara, where he was a four-sport athlete, competing in soccer, football, golf, and volleyball. In 2017, he was a member of the school's CIF Championship and California State Championship football team.[2]
Luckhurst developed into one of the top attacking prospects in the region before committing to play NCAA Division I soccer at Davidson College.[3]
College career
[edit]Luckhurst began his collegiate career at Davidson College. He appeared in nine matches during the COVID-19 2020 season.[4] During his freshman campaign, he earned Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Week honors and was recognized on the Atlantic 10 All-Rookie Team before transferring to the University of South Carolina following the season.[5][6]
At South Carolina, Luckhurst established himself as one of the Gamecocks' premier attacking players. Across three seasons, he became the team's leading goalscorer in each of his final two campaigns, earning All-Conference honors while serving as team captain.[7][8] His performances on the field, combined with his academic success and leadership, led to his selection to the University of South Carolina Top 30 Student-Athletes list.[9]
For his final season of collegiate eligibility, Luckhurst transferred to Duke University, where he pursued a Masters Degree at the Fuqua School of Business while competing for the Duke Blue Devils.[10] During the 2024 season, he led the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) in goals and finished among the nation's top leading goal-scorers.[11] He was named to the United Soccer Coaches All-America Team for his performances and signed his first professional contract with North Carolina FC of the USL Championship during his second semester at Duke.[12]
Professional career
[edit]North Carolina FC
[edit]On February 17, 2025, Luckhurst signed his first professional contract with North Carolina FC of the USL Championship.[13] He made his professional debut during the 2025 season and scored his first professional goal on May 31, 2025, in a 1–0 victory over the Richmond Kickers in the USL Jägermeister Cup.[14] Luckhurst scored his first USL Championship goal on June 20, 2025, netting the match-winning goal in a 2–1 victory over Louisville City FC.[15] The result was regarded as one of North Carolina FC's biggest wins of the season, ending Louisville's 19-match USL Championship unbeaten streak. Luckhurst was named player of the month in June of 2025.[16]
In early August 2025, Luckhurst suffered a season-ending fractured tibia and fibula. The injury required emergency surgery and brought his debut professional campaign to an abrupt end, beginning a lengthy rehabilitation process.
