MIDWEST GEM COLLEGIATE LEAGUE

Welcome to the Midwest Gem Collegiate League – Where College Softball Shines

 

Get ready to take your game to the next level in Kansas City, the heart of the Midwest and home of the brand-new Midwest Gem Collegiate League (MGCL). Launching in the summer of 2026 as part of the American Collegiate League, the MGCL is designed for serious college athletes who want elite competition, unmatched exposure, and unforgettable experiences.

 

Over four fast-paced weeks, you’ll compete in up to 25 high-intensity games, including playoffs and an All-Star event that puts top talent in the spotlight. With dynamic teams like the Amethyst Avengers, Midwest Moonstones, Ruby Sluggers, and Prairie Pearls, the MGCL blends competitive fire with the unique spirit of the Midwest, making every game both meaningful and memorable.

 

Kansas City is more than just a backdrop. It’s a city that lives and breathes athletics. From its legendary barbecue and electric fan culture to iconic landmarks like Union Station and the Country Club Plaza, KC is the perfect home for athletes chasing big dreams. It’s also a city making history as home to professional women’s teams like the Kansas City Diamonds and Kansas City Current, as well as the world’s first stadium built exclusively for women’s pro sports. And in 2026, the world will be watching as Kansas City helps host the FIFA World Cup.

 

When you join the MGCL, you’re stepping into a city that champions women’s sports at every level. You’ll train hard, compete against top talent from across the country, and experience the best of Midwest hospitality.

 

This is your chance to sharpen your skills, showcase your talent, and be part of something groundbreaking in the heart of America.
