The Kansas City Current made a remarkable debut at the grand opening of CPKC Stadium, the first stadium constructed exclusively for a National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) team. The Current's thrilling 5-4 victory over the Portland Thorns in a high-scoring match that tied a league record for total goals set the stage for an exciting new era in women's soccer.
CPKC Stadium, with a price tag exceeding $120 million, was predominantly privately funded, showcasing the Current's commitment to providing top-notch facilities for their players and fans. The team's owners also invested in an $18 million training center, opened in 2022 with plans for further expansion, underscoring their dedication to the sport.
