Yesterday rumors started coming out that the new women's league that US Soccer is trying to get off the ground was going to have one of their teams in Kansas City. Immediately speculation, especially in Kansas City turned to Sporting KC and adding a women's team under their Sporting Club umbrella.
Sporting Kansas City will hold open tryouts for prospective players on Saturday, June 9 and
Sunday, June 10 at the team's Sporting Club Training Center in Swope Park, the club announced
Tuesday. The tryouts are open to players who are 18 years of age and older, and are among
the first 300 registrants.
Today, Sporting KC released information regarding the sell of single-game tickets. Starting next
week, the team will start selling single game tickets to the team's first 8 home games. Games
against New England, Dallas, LA, Real Salt Lake, Montreal, San Jose, Toronto and Chicago. Tickets
will begin to go on sale starting February 13th for season ticket holders.
On Wednesday, Sporting KC's owners, Sporting Club will announce the creation of a new company,
Sporting Innovations. The creation of the company is designed to be a consulting company that will
use the experiences that the team has learned from the opening of LIVESTRONG Sporting Park.
Specifically it seems to be directed with regards to the set up of the stadium, the partnership
between KCK and Google along with the team's partnership with Cisco out at the stadium that has
helped have some very fast internet speeds inside LSP.
A BEHIND THE SCENES ORAL HISTORY OF SOCCER IN KANSAS CITY
On November 18, 2010, a Major League Soccer team changed its name. One minute they were the
Kansas City Wizards. The next, they were Sporting KC. Of course it's never that simple. This is
that story.
Greg Cotton Chief Operating Officer, Sporting Kansas City
I hate the word 'brand' more than anything.
We're hoping in the FBMobile (actually just a Toyota Corolla) and road tripping to the land of
saucy BBQ and Boulevard Beer....Kansas City!
We've got a whole slate of fun stuff going on as we're attending both the grand opening of
LIVESTRONG Sporting Park on June 9th and staying through to the USMNT match on June 14th against
Guadeloupe.
A cool story on the Sporting KC website about a recent training experience that Nixa SC took
part in.
Sporting KC welcomed Nixa Soccer Club to Kansas City earlier this month for a fun-filled,
two-day trip.
On the first day of their stay, the players and their families visited the Sporting Club
Training Center in Swope Park to participate in a clinic conducted by fitness coach Dave McKay and
Sporting KC midfielder Graham Zusi.
Jay Bell took in the game then ran around grabbing sound bytes like a squirrel
stocking nuts for the winter.
The story off the field of last night's dramatic US Open Cup final victory for Sporting Kansas
City is easy to write. A multi-year process was undertaken by Robb Heineman and Sporting Club,
formerly OnGoal, LLC, to re-brand the Kansas City Wizards as Sporting Kansas City and build a
progressive Major League Soccer franchise.
Sporting Kansas City will again offer a series of youth soccer camps in 2012 for boys and girls
of all ages. Camps will be offered to the experienced player ready to take it to the next level as
well as the player who is newly developing their skills. Campers who attend sessions at our
training center in Swope Park will have the opportunity to observe the Pros at practice.
Portland and Vancouver are justifiably getting the attention this year, along with the Sounders.
But maybe I'm just helplessly MLS 1.0, because I'm really excited about Kansas City.
Well...not the roster, so much. But everything else.
Oh, God, no, not the name. Yes, all these people are wrong.

During half time of tonight's game between KC and Rockhurst, I was looking around Twitter and found
this article regarding the 2013 Gold Cup. Apparently, hosting the Gold Cup has become a fairly
popular endeavor for cities to fill some dates. Today 30 perspective stadium sites started the

NC (Wake-Med), Hoover, AL (Regions Park), Tulsa, OK, and Palm Beach, FL.

Molde in hopes of getting their first points of the inaugural NextGen Series after a disappointing

Las reglas del World Football Challenge 2011 son un total y reverendo desmadre, en mi vida habia

Once again the most fashionable pickup tournament God has ever allowed the sun to shine upon,
adidas' Fanatic tournament, is set to descend on Manhattan's West Side this weekend with all of the
advance warning of an F5 tornado.
I honestly love this event. Seriously. It's the city's best amateur soccer event and a staple of my
ever-lightening summer social calendar but the short notice routine is waaaaay tired.
With all the speculation and media attention surrounding the goalkeeping situation at Arsenal, it is not really a surprise that the Gunners are linked with just about every keeper in Europe. With the names of Valdes, Reina, Begovic, Mignolet and more, we can now add the Portuguese international Rui Patricio.

Roster turnover. Throughout the Union's brief two year life in MLS, it has been one of the
unavoidable topics surrounding the team. Each season has seen a drastic overhaul of the lineup and
this year is no different. With the opening kickoff in Portland only days away, PSP takes a moment
to check in with all the former Union players to see where they've landed for the 2012 season.
Since its founding in 1907, Al Ahly S.C. has been known as ‘the people's club,' representing

Egyptian teams, wearing to this day the red kits that honour the pre-colonial Egyptian flag.
25.08.2011 - Curioso que en un paÃs donde el fútbol está lejos de convocar y mover lo que
el cricket (deporte nacional), el hockey y el volley (en ese orden), se emplace el segundo mayor
estadio del mundo.
El Salt Lake Stadium, oficialmente Estadio de la Juventud India (en bengalà Yuva
Bharati Krirangan), es el más grande de la India y el segundo estadio más grande del mundo,
con capacidad para 120.
The standout for the night (19 July at Griffith Uni Southbank) was the brilliant performance of
Roar CEO Eugenie Buckley. Eugenie's appointment is more evidence, if more is required, that the
A-League should be centrally run. The FFA has found for its staff, then nurtured, and now provided
to run a club, a highly skilled professional, who understands the game, its fans and the mechanics
of a sporting club.
