The Kansas City Current announced it has broken ground on its Riverside stadium expansion project, entering the next stage of its development.

As part of the development’s next phase, the Riverside stadium will see the addition of a new state-of-the-art Performance Center as well as improvements to the stadium’s grass and turf pitches, according to a Tuesday release. The City of Riverside approved plans for the stadium in June. 

Project Overview

• Riverside Stadium: 2,000-seat outdoor Stadium, featuring a FIFA-certified, heated grass pitch and fan amenities.
• Performance Center: State-of-the-art facility focused on player development, agility, and strength. The Performance Center will bring the Kansas City Current’s total training and headquarters footprint to over 35,000 sf.
• Pitch Expansion: Construction of four new grass youth soccer pitches, bringing the Current’s total training campus to 12 grass and turf pitches, including one state-of-the-art heated pitch.

The project has an estimated cost of $52 million and is expected to open by the end of the year.

“Our best-in-class player facilities enable our athletes to reach new heights – our fan facilities set the new standard for fan experience in our league,” Kansas City Current co-owners Angie and Chris Long said in the release. “We are thrilled to continue to invest in the City of Riverside as we build the best women’s soccer club in the world, right here in the State of Missouri. We are elevating our players, our city, and our region – so that we all rise together.”
