The World Cup is heading to the Dallas-Fort Worth region this summer, and leading up to the event, Frisco is preparing to host the Swedish national team. 

Although the matches will be played in Arlington, Frisco is positioning itself to be a key player in the area, officials said. Frisco is one of two base camps in the area, it will host several fan events and is the home to the National Soccer Hall of Fame. 

Zooming in: Teams will arrive in Frisco in early June to train and practice at their designated facility, said Monica Paul, president of the North Texas FIFA World Cup Organizing Committee. She said there may not be a lot of fans traveling to base camps, but it’s going to generate increased tax dollars for the city by just having a team staying locally.

Quote of note: “I hope [for] the families and the kids that get to experience it here in just a couple months that it creates one of those lifelong memories,” Mayor Jeff Cheney said.
