KC Current Breaks Ground on New Stadium and Performance Center in Riverside

Milestone Moment for Women's Soccer in Kansas City

The Kansas City Current has officially broken ground on a pioneering stadium and performance center in Riverside, Missouri. This ambitious project marks a new chapter for women’s soccer in the U.S., as the KC Current continues to elevate its place in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL).

Details of the New Riverside Development

The development consists of two major components:

• Stadium – Designed specifically for women’s soccer, the new stadium will offer an elite game-day experience for fans while providing players with world-class facilities.
• Performance Center – Aided by Ford as a major sponsor, this state-of-the-art center will become the team's year-round training facility.

Located just north of downtown Kansas City, the Riverside project demonstrates the team's commitment to growing both on and off the pitch.

Why This Matters

This historic investment is more than a construction project—it’s a symbol of progress in women's sports, and a benchmark for other teams across the NWSL. With full ownership of its facilities, the KC Current is setting a new standard in professional sports.

Benefits of the New Facility Include:

• Enhanced training and performance spaces tailored to women athletes
• Expanded fan engagement opportunities with better accessibility and amenities
• Continued growth for Riverside and the surrounding areas through economic development

Looking Ahead

The KC Current aims to have their new facilities operational by the 2024 season. This move not only positions the club as a leader within the league but also showcases Kansas City as a hub for progressive sports initiatives.

With the groundbreaking now complete, the future looks incredibly bright for the KC Current and its growing fanbase.
