As illinisoccer pointed out, Team Chicago used to be very good at U-little 10-15 years ago. And, yes, the old guard did seem to put everything...
I'm not denying that this is a tough scenario, and that feelings and egos are going to be hurt. But isn't learning how to respond to adversity one...
A frequent topic here is whether Chicagoland clubs playing in the top leagues should "allow" players to play high school soccer. Here's a tweet...

Yes, s0cc3rdad011 had a hot take about a week before the RC news became publicly known. Maybe s0cc3rdad011's kid went to Crystal Lake. If so,...
Something struck me after looking at MaxPreps and ChicagolandSoccer. The girls high school season started only a little more than a month ago,...

Bring in Midwest United and you have 8 clubs within a reasonable drive.
Agree with some of your points, but please don’t make them by referencing kids, even if only by their initials. Youth players don’t want to be...
Bringing back SK and/or TB would be a good start on addressing your second point; better at dealing with parents and kids, and not arrogant in...

Which coach are you referring to?
If true, that is a preacademy team. So does that constitute the formation of a legit ECNL team?
Another point to consider is that highly competitive interscholastic and intercollegiate sports are strictly an American phenomenon. In the rest...
The overriding question really comes down to whether your kid wants to play college soccer. First, I think it's unfortunate that any child has to...
These high school rankings are total rubbish. Topdrawer is merely spitting out rankings based on: 1) how many kids go to (or will go to) a...
This morning in the Starbucks drive thru the car in front of me had both Spartan and FC United magnets. A few years ago I used to see cars with...
Well earned and deserved recognition for a local girl who happens to be the nation’s leading goal scorer in club soccer (scroll down after opening...
Nah, Wenger employs too much pretty tiki-taka ball movement. All of the know-nothing soccer parents would be screaming for more shots. You'll...
Un nouvel entraîneur pourrait être annoncé très prochainement pour l'académie de développement des filles de FC United. Il peut même être un...
