Challenger Cup

The Challenger Cup is a mid-season tournament for lower level premier (DII, III, IV, V) and recreational teams.

Most events at this time of year cater to the 'elite' premier teams so the Challenger Cup fills a void by offering teams an opportunity to prepare for the spring season by playing against other teams of similar ability so that every game is competitive, fun and challenging.

Games are played at Stump and Swarner Parks in Shawnee, KS, which are widely regarded as two of the best soccer facilities in the Kansas City metro area.
