Graham Zusi Named Community Ambassador for nbkc bank as Kansas City Prepares for Global Soccer Spotlight
KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- With just over a year until Kansas City takes the global stage as part of soccer world's biggest tournament, nbkc bank® has named former U.S. Men's National Team standout and Sporting Kansas City legend Graham Zusi as its Community Ambassador. Zusi's role at nbkc bank is effective immediately and continues through next year's tournament. Kansas City will host matches on June 16, June 20, June 25, June 27, July 3 and July 11, 2026. Zusi, who played in the 2014 FIFA World Cup™ in Brazil, brings to nbkc, Kansas City and the global soccer audience an accomplished playing career and a long-standing connection to the community. Over 15 seasons with Sporting Kansas City, he earned distinction as a seven-time MLS All-Star, 2013 MLS Cup champion, and three-time U.S. Open Cup winner. He started all four matches for the U.S. Men's National Team during its 2014 FIFA World Cup campaign and was instrumental in its advancement to the knockout stage. In his new role with nbkc, Zusi serves as an experienced local presence during a visible international moment for Kansas City. He will represent the bank through community appearances, select speaking engagements with nbkc clients, employees and civic groups, and by hosting a community-wide foosball tournament, details of which will be released at a later date. "We're thrilled to have Graham Zusi join us during such an exciting moment for soccer in Kansas City," said Michael Bartkoski, CEO of nbkc bank. "Graham shined on the world soccer stage and brings a unique connection to the sport and Kansas City—and helps nbkc deepen its ties to both communities. We are looking forward to helping prepare the business community for this monumental event." "I'm excited to represent nbkc as Kansas City prepares to host the biggest event in the soccer world," Zusi said. "I've come to know nbkc as a bank with good people who are committed to the community and focused on making banking simple and approachable for individuals and businesses." Now stepping into entrepreneurship--including his leading the development of a six-unit residential project in Kansas City -- Zusi credits his career on the field with preparing him for success in business. "Soccer taught me discipline, resilience and the value of teamwork—qualities that are just as important in business as they are on the field," said Zusi. "I appreciate nbkc's support of local businesses throughout the region." The announcement of Zusi's role with nbkc builds on the bank's recent community initiatives. On Memorial Day weekend, nbkc helped underwrite free admission support for the National World War I Museum and Memorial for active-duty military members, veterans and their families. In October 2025, nbkc will be the official banking partner and a gold-level sponsor of the Garmin Kansas City Marathon.

Canadian Grand Prix to run on the same day as the Indianapolis 500 in 2026
The Canadian Grand Prix will be held at the same time as the Indianapolis 500 in 2026. (Photo by Bryn Lennon - Formula 1/Formula 1 via Getty Images) The days of the Monaco Grand Prix preceding the Indianapolis 500 on Memorial Day weekend are gone. At least for now. Formula 1 released its 2026 schedule on Tuesday and it includes the series going head-to-head with the Indianapolis 500. The Monaco Grand Prix has moved back to June and will take place on June 7. In its place is the Canadian Grand Prix, which will be held on May 24. Advertisement This year's Canadian Grand Prix is set to be held on Sunday and has traditionally been held in mid-June. But next year's date swap is being made for travel-related reasons. Monaco will be the first race of the season in Europe. By moving the Canadian Grand Prix up and Monaco back, F1 will have nine straight European races. Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix is set to start at 2 p.m. ET for a primetime start in Europe. Assuming the race keeps that start time, it will overlap with the end of the Indy 500. The Indy 500 was scheduled to go green at 12:45 p.m. ET this year but was delayed for rain showers. The Monaco Grand Prix hasn't been held on Memorial Day weekend every year of its existence, but its absence from the same day of the Indy 500 and NASCAR's Coca-Cola 600 will be a stark change for race fans who have become accustomed to watching all three events in the same day. The ninth and final European race of the year will also be a new race on the calendar. F1 will host a second race in Spain on a street circuit in Madrid on Sept. 13. That race replaces Imola on the calendar. Imola has held a spring Grand Prix in recent years, but is being dropped for 2026 and beyond. Advertisement The 2026 season begins again in Australia before races in China and Japan ahead of Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The Miami Grand Prix will be on May 3, while the United States Grand Prix in Austin will be on Oct. 25 and the Las Vegas Grand Prix will be on Nov. 21. The Vegas race will again be followed by races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi to close the season. 2026 Formula 1 schedule March 8: Australian Grand Prix March 15: Chinese Grand Prix March 29: Japanese Grand Prix April 12: Bahrain Grand Prix April 19: Saudi Arabian Grand Prix May 3: Miami Grand Prix May 24: Canadian Grand Prix June 7: Monaco Grand Prix June 14: Spanish Grand Prix Advertisement June 28: Austrian Grand Prix July 5: British Grand Prix July 19: Belgian Grand Prix July 26: Hungarian Grand Prix Aug. 23: Dutch Grand Prix Sept. 6: Italian Grand Prix Sept. 13: Madrid Grand Prix Sept. 27: Azerbaijan Grand Prix Oct. 11: Singapore Grand Prix Oct. 25: United States Grand Prix Nov. 1: Mexico Grand Prix Nov. 8: São Paulo Grand Prix Nov. 21: Las Vegas Grand Prix Nov. 29: Qatar Grand Prix Dec. 6: Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
