KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Alliance FC is thrilled to announce a partnership with KC Courage, a distinguished member of the Women’s Premier Soccer League (WPSL). This collaboration marks a significant step forward in our effort to elevate women's soccer and provide opportunities for female athletes in Kansas City and beyond. 

The partnership between Alliance FC and KC Courage is founded on a shared goal of fostering talent and creating pathways for female athletes to reach their highest potential. Key components of this collaboration are player development and providing a pathway to college and professional level soccer. 

“I am truly excited about this partnership with Alliance FC and the KC Courage. The KC Courage has been a special place for me for years. I have been a player and a coach in the environment and loved the support of all these women from different experiences. As a coach for Alliance for the last 4 years, I have seen players go to the next level and want to make sure they receive all the benefits to being around top college players, professionals and strong women in general that the KC Courage provides. My hope is not just that the young players from Alliance receive on field experience, but also the confidence, professionalism and leadership it takes to truly rise and make a difference on and off the field at their next teams.” expressed Katie LaForge, head coach KC Courage and Director of Girls Coaching, Alliance FC. 

"I'm looking forward to seeing the fruits of what this partnership will bring. We have a solid core of over a dozen post-grad players, several of them former professionals, that add a tremendous value in mentoring our college and high school age players. We've seen year after year how younger players that join us for the summer gain experience and confidence that they can't get from other programs or leagues." shared Wendy Louque, Owner/Coach, KC Courage Soccer.
