Sporting Kansas City History

Sporting Kansas City has the honor of being one of the original franchises of Major League Soccer, first kicking off in 1996 as the Kansas City Wiz. One season later, the name changed to the Kansas City Wizards, which remained in use until the end of the 2010 season. The Kansas City soccer franchise was founded by Lamar Hunt, who owned the Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL and also helped to create Major League Soccer, the American Football League and the United Soccer Association of the '60s. Hunt Sports Group owned the Wizards until shortly before he died in 2006, when the current Sporting Club ownership group took over.

Kansas City's MLS franchise has been home to some of the greatest names in American and international soccer, including Alexi Lalas, Tony Meola, Preki and Matt Besler. SKC sustained a period of achievement under former Wizards player and 2000 MLS Defender of the Year Peter Vermes, who coached the team from 2009 to 2025.

Sporting KC have claimed the MLS Cup in 2000 and 2013, a Supporters’ Shield in 2000 and four U.S. Open Cup titles (2004, 2012, 2015, and 2017). In 2023, Kansas City reached the conference semifinals of the MLS Cup Playoffs, and followed with a runner-up finish in the 2024 U.S. Open Cup.

  • Great atmosphere and fun for the fans

    by 2MusicalFans on 4/16/24GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    We are not huge soccer fans, but are starting to get into it! We had family in Illinois who wanted the chance to see Messi play (like everyone in there), so we got the tickets. We had a great time! The Ford Tailgate Fan Experience was really fun for the 9 year old. He came in a Messi fan, but left buying a Sporting KC jersey and holding an armful of free stuff and getting a picture with a SKC rookie. The atmosphere at Arrowhead was great, and that was the right call to move the game there, with so many local fans and a big-name player in town. The flyover was AWESOME too! It was perfect weather that day and we really had a great family-friendly day and got to show off our city and the great people here. Thank you to everyone who made it a wonderful event!

  • Greatest soccer match I’ve seen!

    Greatest soccer match I’ve seen! Messi was in attendance and scored a goal!

  • Arrowhead parking is atrocious

    by Cliff on 4/16/24GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas CityRating: 3 out of 5

    The facility game are outstanding however the most atrocious thing about arrowhead Stadium is the parking system. $50 a car or if you want premium $112 a car to wait several hours to get in, park a half a mile away in a non-asphalted area is ridiculous. Getting in and out of the stadium is the biggest hassle and it almost blocks one from going to any events hosted at arrowhead.

  • Great

    by Great but parking was bad on 4/16/24GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    The game was great but parking was a big challenge- long lines to get in.

  • Sporting KC vs Inter Miami at GEHA Stadium

    by Marian on 4/16/24GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas CityRating: 4 out of 5

    The game was amazing! What really did not work well was getting to the GEHA stadium (Chief’s stadium), finding a parking spot and then leaving from the stadium. The fact that you have to go through a tunnel to get in an out of the stadium for the L parking lot also served as a bottleneck, just the same as getting to the stadium. Other than that, great experience and family friendly environment.

  • Horrendous Parking

    by Brandon on 4/16/24GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas CityRating: 2 out of 5

    What in the world was Sporting KC thinking with the parking situation at Arrowhead??? It took over an hour and half to get out of the parking lot after the SKC vs Inter-Miami match. If this is what is to be expected during the World Cup, Kansas City is going to have some serious issues. We will be the laughing stock of the tournament and an international embarrassment. Do better!

  • Sporting KC

    by Bren on 4/16/24GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    I attended with my family. Watching the excitement in my grandsons was truly the best experience!

  • Great game!

    by ShelbyAnn21 on 10/22/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    Children's Mercy Park is such a great arena. There really isn't a bad seat in the house.

  • Great Family Fun at Sporting KC

    by LinzF on 8/23/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    This was our first game. There were vendors, freebies, and activities before we went in. Everything was so family friendly and we had a really great time! Can't wait to go back.

  • Too Loud!!!

    by Knycty on 7/14/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 1 out of 5

    This review is for families with small children; the whole stadium atmosphere is way too loud and wild for us. Scared my 3 year-old to death. Yes, I expected a loud crowd at a soccer game, but the fireworks and loud, loud music made it much worse.

  • Great venue, great team!

    by tvail4 on 7/13/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 4 out of 5

    Our seats (102, row 21) were almost perfect, on the shaded side of the stadium for an evening game. They were at the perfect height. Only being more central could have been better, but probably not worth the premium.

  • Great Game, Venue, Food, and Service, Weird Seatin

    by Derreck on 7/7/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 4 out of 5

    First and foremost, it was a great game in an incredible stadium. The park is unbelievable. We had the Terrace or "Bud Light Corner" seats which are an open area with all you can eat and drink. The food was great but there are about half as many chairs as there are tickets to that section, so for the first 70 minutes of the match, we found ourselves trying to see around people who were also standing around, standing in front of chairs, or sitting in the high chairs. Eventually, people leave the game early and we were able to enjoy the last 15-20 minutes of the match from some chairs. I might not recommend this section but I definitely recommend the event itself!

  • by Anonymous on 7/6/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    An excellent Sporting experience. The crowd was electric and the action on the field was non stop!

  • Great seats, great venue!

    by tvail4 on 7/6/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    Seats were at the perfect height in the stands. My 2-year-old loved watching the Cauldron. The team never gave up and treated us to a super entertaining match.

  • SPORTING KC ROCKS!!

    by GLSKUFAN on 7/6/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    My first Sporting KC game...GREAT NIGHT! I/we can't wait to go back ASAP!! Thanx! GLS

  • Amazing time supporting Sporting!

    by Kt15 on 6/23/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    This was a great experience for me. All of the employees I encountered were kind and helpful! We bought tickets in the Members Stand and it was an unforgettable atmosphere. It was easy to forget about the heat with the indoor space to cool off in. Unfortunately, I was a little unimpressed with the food from the concession stand, but that is my one complaint! Everything else was an amazing experience.

  • Well Worth It

    by AlKaDi on 5/30/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    If this is the future of soccer in America, it is in good hands. Family atmosphere, with lots of fans having a good time cheering for their home team. The souvenirs were a bit on the expensive side, oh well. The stadium is the perfect size and there are plenty of things sto do and restaurants to eat at near by. An all around enjoyable time.

  • Great stadium, great game!

    by Anonymous on 5/30/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    Sporting KC vs. DC United was an incredible experience! It was my friend and I's first professional soccer game and we loved it! The team website was quick at letting us know that the game had been moved to 8:30. The fans were respectful and I could tell they really loved their KC team. The only bummer was that it started raining after the first half so they had to delay the second half for about an hour. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely recommend!

  • by Anonymous on 5/30/16Children's Mercy Park - Kansas CityRating: 5 out of 5

    We had a great time on our first visit seeing Sporting KC. Children's Mercy Park is an outstanding facility. It doesn't appear that there's a bad seat in the place. It was easy walking distance from our hotel with numerous eating options. We'll be back!

  • Right on goal line
