Brady Krysiewicz Keeper for the Cure by KCMB Kansas City News

(From Anthony K. email submission) We would like to tell you a captivating story about the remarkable journey of Brady Krysiewicz. At just 13 years old, Brady is already making waves as a talented goalkeeper for the Sporting Kansas City Academy. However, his story goes far beyond his achievements on the field.

Brady's passion for soccer led him to relocate from Virginia to Kansas City a year and a half ago, fully committing himself to the Academy. Despite the challenges of traveling back and forth for training, Brady's dedication caught the attention of Sporting Kansas City when he was scouted at just 11 years old. But what truly sets Brady apart is his incredible work behind the scenes.

In 2009, Brady established his own nonprofit organization called Keeper For a Cure. Since its inception, this inspiring initiative has raised over $9,000 in September and October for various local organizations. Initially focused on supporting hospitals and nonprofits aiding women battling breast cancer, Brady's experiences over the years have broadened his perspective.

This year, Brady has chosen to raise funds for anyone affected by cancer, having encountered individuals who have fought against this disease in its various forms. He discovered the Gildas Club in Kansas City, an organization dedicated to supporting cancer patients, and decided to rally his efforts behind them. Since launching the campaign in September, Brady has already raised an impressive $1,700. To further amplify his impact, he has organized a significant event at Apex Ale works and Brewery in Independence, Missouri, scheduled for the last Friday of this month. This event with have comedians and musicians at the event.

With a goal of reaching $3,000 and surpassing the $10,000 mark since the establishment of Keeper For a Cure in 2009, Brady is eager to garner as much press coverage as possible. Your assistance and support in spreading the word about this incredible endeavor would be immensely appreciated.

Kansas City Selected To Host 2013 MLS All-Star Game

After hosting the 2012 MLB All-Star game, Kansas City has been selected to host another all-star game this summer. MLS commissioner Don Garber confirmed yesterday that his league will be having its all-star game this summer at Kansas City’s Livestrong Sporting Park.

Since its opening, Livestrong Park has grown into one of the top venues to watch a soccer game in the country. Sporting KC fans have quickly become one of the most supportive and passionate fan bases in the MLS, and US men’s and women’s national games held at Livestrong have also been a success.

Peter Vermes, the head coach of Sporting KC, will coach the MLS all-star team in the game. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on a Wednesday night, and will be broadcast on ESPN and Univision. The match will also be shown in more than 100 countries.

Tickets start at $50 for the members’ stand and rise as high as $115 for seats in the west stands. Tickets for the Shield Club start at $160. A special presale for tickets has already begun, and it is possible that the entire stadium sells out quickly.

At this point, it is not clear who the MLS all-stars will actually play in the game. Since 2003, the MLS all-stars have faced top club teams from around the world, including seven matches against teams from the English Premier League. The MLS all-stars hold a 6-2-1 record all time in this format. If a European team is selected for this game, it likely will not be announced for at least another month, when these clubs begin planning and announcing their United States tours.

Is Kansas City becoming a soccer town? With the Chiefs and Royals both stuck in mediocrity, Sporting KC has given fans a winner to cheer for. In this case, the support Kansas City residents have shown for Sporting and the US national teams has been rewarded.

Omar Bravo Scores 2 Goals in Sporting KC Opener

Omar Bravo introduced himself to Kansas City Soccer fans last night with two goals in the season opener in Los Angeles against Chivas USA. The 31 year old Mexican Striker was brought to Sporting Kansas City in the off season to help a club who struggled to score goals last season. Bravo has been a standout for years with Mexican club Guadalajara. Sporting went on to beat Chivas 3-2.

Beating Chivas USA may not be a monumental feat (they are the worst team in the league working under a completely new system for this season), but opening the season with a road victory is important, especially seeing as how Sporting is playing nothing but road games until June when their new stadium opens.

Starting the scoring for Sporting was newcomer C J Sapong with a goal in the game's second minute. Sapong was Sporting's first round draft pick on the off season. He is an up and coming American forward who played his college soccer at James Madison University.

While it seems the offense is in high gear, it's a little troubling to give up two goals to a Chivas team who has struggled to score goals and will continue to struggle. But lets not focus on the bad and enjoy a victory to start 2011 MLS Season. Sporting is next in action on Saturday the 26th in Chicago.
