Media Credentials

Thank you for your interest in covering local soccer as FC Wichita begins the 2025 season.

The single-game credential application is now open but if you wish to be considered for a full season credential please let us know by stating "Full Season" in the Any Additional Information box. Also, it is important to read the following reminders and updates:

Credential applications must be submitted no later than 48 hours from match kickoff and are only for media outlets that need game day Press Room and/or Field access to produce editorial coverage, not to watch the match. This includes newspapers, TV, radio, magazines and legitimate digital websites that produce consistent and professional content adhering to accepted journalistic principles.
Credentials and seating space in the Press Box and Press Room is limited and priority will be given to those working on a deadline.
Applications from freelance writers, photographers or videographers must come from a direct supervisor validating the professional and editorial need for media access. All applications using a personal email address, such as Gmail or Hotmail, must provide validation from their outlet.
The credential application will open 4 weeks before each match date. For travel or scheduling purposes, if you require approval to future dates that are not listed, please contact us.
