More than 250 teams will compete October 3-5 at two major soccer complexes
OVERLAND PARK & OLATHE, Kan., Oct. 1, 2025 — Heartland Soccer Association will host the Midwest All Girls Tournament from October 3-5 at the Garmin Olathe and Scheels Overland Park Soccer Complexes.
This year’s event will bring together more than 250 teams from 10 states, including ECNL, NPL, and state and regional champions. Thousands of players and families will travel to Kansas City for the weekend, contributing an estimated $5.46 million in economic impact. Beyond the competition, the tournament has become a fall tradition that unites athletes and supporters from across the Midwest.
The tournament will also feature Heartland Soccer’s annual “Go Pink” campaign in support of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Staff and field marshals will wear pink, and families and fans are encouraged to participate. The effort serves as a reminder about the importance of regular screenings and helps raise awareness for breast cancer research and prevention.
“The Midwest All Girls Tournament reflects the passion and progress of the women’s game,” said Shane Hackett, executive director of Heartland Soccer. “Seeing players, coaches and families gather here in Kansas City to compete and celebrate the talent and dedication of these athletes is truly remarkable.”
All matches at Garmin Olathe Soccer Complex will be live streamed via VidSport, the world’s largest fixed AI camera installation at a soccer-specific facility. Fans can watch from any device and access individual player highlights for recruitment and game review.
Media coverage is welcome during the event, which begins Friday at 5:30 p.m. and continues throughout the weekend.
Following the Midwest All Girls Tournament, Heartland Soccer will host the Heartland Invitational Tournaments, which are expected to attract more than 700 teams from across the Midwest. For more information, visit www.heartlandsoccer.net.
