KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The NCAA has awarded Kansas City, Missouri, multiple championship events, including the 2027 Men's Division I Midwest Regional Basketball Tournament.

CPKC Stadium, home of the Kansas City Current, was selected as the host site for the 2025 NCAA DI Women’s College Cup and the 2026 NCAA DII Women’s and Men’s Soccer Championships, according to a news release from the Big 12 Conference.

“We are so excited to be hosting the NCAA soccer championships at CPKC Stadium,” said Stefanie Tomlin, vice president of stadium business development and general manager at CPKC Stadium. “It’s been the goal from the beginning to be a premiere venue for other sports events of all levels. As the first stadium purpose-built for a women’s professional team, we take great pride in providing a platform and a world-class venue for the top collegiate soccer talent in the country.”

This is the first time the NCAA Division I Women’s Soccer Championships will be played in KCMO, per the news release.

The NCAA Division II Women’s Championships were held at Swope Soccer Village in Kansas City in 2016 and 2017.

In December 2025, Kansas City will host the NCAA D-I Women's Volleyball Championships at the T-Mobile Center, which hosted the NCAA D-I Men’s Wrestling Championships last spring.
