The Kelces are taking over Kansas City ahead of Monday’s Chiefs-Eagles game.

Kylie Kelce was in Kansas City on Sunday ahead of the first matchup between the Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles — and the Kelce brothers, Travis and Jason — since the Super Bowl to host two field hockey clinics with Stick With KC at Go Ape! Zipline and Adventure Park in Swope Park.

Kylie, who played field hockey in college and coached her former high school team, said she hoped to teach more kids in the Kansas City area about the sport and inspire them to get on the field. She is married to Eagles center Jason Kelce.

“Sports teaches teamwork,” she said. “It teaches coming together to work toward a common goal, and all of those things are transferable skills to the rest of life. So what better time to start than as early as possible, and I get to do it while sharing the passion of the sport.”

Mother-in-law Donna Kelce watched the clinic from a nearby room, wearing her famous red and green split jacket, showing equal support for her sons’ teams.

Momma Kelce is scheduled for her own event ahead of the Kelce Bowl rematch. She’ll work from 10 to 11 a.m.Monday serving chicken at Raising Cane’s at 7501 W. 135th St. in Overland Park.

Fans won’t find Kylie in the Kelce suite at Monday’s game. The lifelong Eagles lover said she’ll be cheering on her husband in the stands alongside other Philadelphia fans.

“I’m just hoping that we’ll have enough people in the stadium saying ‘Go Birds’ that we will get my husband’s first win against the Kansas City Chiefs in his career,” she said. “He’s 13 years in. We’re due, I think.”

Kylie won’t be the only prominent guest absent from the Kelce suite Monday. Pop superstar Taylor Swift will be continuing her Eras Tour performances in Brazil. Swift postponed Saturday’s show to Monday due to extreme heat after a 23-year-old fan died at Friday’s show.

Swift’s parents were previously expected to be at the “Monday Night Football” game along with Travis and Jason Kelce’s parents. It’s unknown whether those plans have changed since her concert schedule shifted.
