“As a staff, we are delighted to add Cam to the SAFC family,” said SAFC Head Coach Alen Marcina. “Over his young playing career, he has demonstrated selfless leadership qualities and has also served as a team captain at the USL level. Cam is a very talented player with high potential and already meaningful playing experience at various U.S. national team levels, MLS and USL.”
Lindley joins SAFC after spending the 2020 season with Indy Eleven, making 12 appearances and playing 756 minutes during the COVID-19 shortened campaign. The 23-year-old created 11 chances while also adding 15 tackles and 10 interceptions over the course of his 12 games.

After his second loan spell with Memphis during the 2019 season, the midfielder then signed full time with Indy Eleven prior to the 2020 campaign. Lindley has also represented his country at the U-17, U-18, U-20 and U-23 levels, making 28 appearances overall.
“I am super excited to be joining such a historic franchise,” said Lindley. “I’m excited to work with Alen and the entire staff and build on the great year they had last season. I’m looking forward to giving my all for the club and entire SAFC community.”
