Sporting Kansas City announced on Tuesday the launch of Centers of Excellence (COE) programs for the U-9 and U-11 age groups. The Centers of Excellence programs are designed to enhance a player’s overall foundation prior to entering the Sporting KC Academy as well as serve as a tool to identify players to join the Academy program.

Players in the Centers of Excellence receive high level training directly from Sporting Kansas City coaches. Fall & Spring trainings are located at Swope Soccer Village, training home for two-time MLS Cup champion Sporting Kansas City, two-time NWSL champion FC Kansas City as well as the SKC Academy.
