KANSAS CITY (April 4, 2025) — The Kansas City Current have announced the club’s broadcast partners for the 2025 season.

The club has also partnered for the second straight season with 90.9 The Bridge for radio broadcasts of all 2025 matches. Additionally, every Current match, both home and away, will be available in Spanish and Portuguese on the KC Current App, in partnership with Tico Sports.

"As we continue our unwavering commitment to becoming the best women’s football club in the world, we’re thrilled to work with three broadcast partners who help us expand our fanbase,” said Current Vice President of Communications, Dani Welniak. “KMCI, 38 the Spot has been a great TV home for our matches and we’re very excited to continue working with 90.9 The Bridge and Tico Sports. It’s important to us to broaden our reach by blazing the trail and offering extensive, unique, and accessible options to listen to and watch our entertaining brand of soccer.”

“Building off of the success of the 2024 season, it is no secret that Kansas City loves soccer and celebrating their teams,” said Kathleen Choal, regional vice president for The E.W. Scripps Company and general manager of KSHB and KMCI.  “Making an impressive playoff run in 2024, our local audience could not get enough of the Currents’ success.  Growing our broadcast partnership was key for the team to ensure our local fans did not miss a minute of the action.”

KMCI, 38 the Spot will air four locally produced games this season, beginning with the Current’s road match against the North Carolina Courage April 26. Select broadcasts will include a 30-minute pregame show, KC Current Matchday, featuring interviews, analysis, and the latest information about the Current to help fans prepare for the exciting action. In addition, KMCI, 38 the Spot will simulcast all the Current’s matches on the NWSL’s returning TV partner, ION, for a total of 17 games in 2025.

Jillian Carroll Letrinko will anchor all local broadcasts as the television play-by-play voice of the Current. Carroll Letrinko will be joined by an all-star cast of soccer legends this season including former professional players Jordan Angeli and Jessica McDonald.

90.9 The Bridge will air every Kansas City Current match this season, led by play-by-play voice Dave Borchardt and analyst Jillian Carroll Letrinko. Fans can tune in on the radio at 90.9 FM or on The Bridge app.

"Introducing sports into a music format had moments of trepidation, but our listeners embraced the team from the start,” said Bryan Truta, Senior Director of Radio Operations for 90.9 the Bridge. “Even more than the winning action on the field, the ethos of our organizations matches up so well. It is our honor to carry on providing this vital public service of amplifying women's sport in 2025. Here's to another winning season!"

The Current will continue to partner with Tico Sports to deliver all matches to fans in Spanish. New in 2025, all Current matches will be available in Portuguese. Both broadcasts will be available alongside the English version on the Kansas City Current app.

“We are thrilled to enter our second season of delivering Spanish and Portuguese broadcasts to the passionate Latino fanbase.
