IT'S TIME FOR KIDS TO HAVE FUN AGAIN
Are you tired of over-competitive youth sports? Do you want your kids to have fun, learn new skills, and make new friends—without the pressure of specializing in one sport year-round?
Welcome to Crew Kids! We believe kids should enjoy sports at their own pace, explore different activities, and build confidence through play—not stress about competition or burnout.
Choose between our one-time events and our weekly social leagues (coming soon). No more dedicating half of your week to practice and games for the same sport every weekend. Choose your sport and night then play on that night only. Want to play more? Play in multiple sports on different nights if your schedule allows.
Crew Kids is brought to you by KC Crew, a trusted provider of community and social sports in the Kansas City metro for over 13 years. With more than 100,000 adults served and partnerships with local organizations like Overland Park Parks and Rec, Kansas City Missouri Parks and Rec, and HyVee Arena, we’ve built a reputation for creating fun, social experiences for everyone.

Pick Your

register
step 2:
Once you decide on your game and skill level, click on the link to join the team. Your spot isn’t confirmed on the team until you complete registration.
keep an eye out for an email
step 3:
You may be wondering what happens if your team doesn’t fill. That can happen, but that doesn’t mean you don’t get to play! If your team does not fill within one week of the league, we will reach out to try to move you to another team.
GET READY TO PLAY!
step 4:
Once the team you joined is full, we will email all players on the team to connect you and as for a team captain. Once a captain is set, we pass the team over to them! They will be your point of contact for the season.
SIGN UP FOR BASKETBALL NIGHT OUT
Our first event is Basketball Night Out on Saturday, December 7th from 4:30pm until 8pm at Matt Ross Community Center in Downtown Overland Park.
This event is for boys and girls between 7 and 11 years old and will include basketball skill development such as finishing at the basket, ball handling, offensive concepts and a whole lot of fun!
On top of skill training, the most important part is fun play with others through 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5 games throughout the night.

Any active-duty military or veteran who is 18yo and above can play in the leagues.
All games are played online at the specific time in the schedule. You will join the Discord channel and then breakout to play against your opponent.
You must have access to an Xbox, Playstation or PC as well as an internet connection.
We are only using games that are free to download. If you do not have a console (PS4, PS5, Xbox X/S, Xbox One or PC), you would need to purchase one in order to play.
The first night, all players will report to the League Voice Channel at 7pm CDT. We have a welcome speech for all players to explain the league and answer questions.
After week 1, teams will report to their game room between 6:45pm-7pm CDT to meet with their opponent before beginning play.
All scores will be reported in your assigned game room for each week. There will be a match results text channel in your game room. You will report scores and screenshots after your match each week.
To expedite us recording scores, please type out the results as well (total wins for Rocket League and total kills for Warzone)
Currently, we are only running Rocket League and Warzone. As we look to expand the leagues, we will discuss which games to add.
If you have a specific preference, please fill out this form.
To report rule violations, toxic behavior, or match disputes, please notify our league director at events@kccrew.com Keep in mind that this does not guarantee the score being changed as each report will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
You can find all rules for each e-sport on their specific league page when you sign in here.
We also have leagues for you! Our recommendation is to download each game and try it out. All league games are free to download and play. Once you do that, choose whichever game you like better and join one of the social/rec teams in that league.
