The National Women's Soccer League is back and excitement is building ahead of the 2025 season, which is set to begin next month.
Teams are ramping up their preseason training, with all eyes on the opening round of regular season fixtures. Kansas City Current will host the Portland Thorns on March 15, with an 11:45 a.m. kickoff.
Last season, KC Current finished fourth in the regular season standings and qualified for the playoffs. They advanced to the semi-finals but were beaten 3–2 by eventual champions Orlando Pride.
Founded as an expansion team in 2021, KC Current have never won the NWSL Championship and have been runners-up just once, in the 2022 season. They were defeated 2–0 by the Portland Thorns, and their wait for a championship title continues.
