Lorrie, Ronnie and their older brother, Greg all got their start and played for many years in AYSO Region 43.
She most recently played for Chelsea in the FA Women's Premier League. On February 1, 2008, it was announced that Fair had signed for Chelsea Ladies as a player, for whom she had been working solely as an ambassador up to that point. Fair vowed to continue her work with the club at grass roots level. The move was significant as she became the first American international to sign for a club in the Women's Premier League. Fair suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury in May 2008, which ruled her out of the following season.
