Soccer talk focuses on youth complex

By BOB LUDERThe Kansas City StarIt's uncertain whether a 20,000-seat soccer stadium is in Johnson County's future, but many officials agree the county should be exploring a new youth soccer complex.The youth fields could be the first part of a larger Johnson County soccer complex that also could house the Wizards, according to discussions at a Friday meeting between county officials and members of the Kansas City Sports Commission.“It's all very speculative, but there's definitely a desire to do something there,” Jim Martin, executive director of the Shawnee economic development council, said of a possible youth complex.
