Thoughts, this summer(2024) my kid will be entering 9th grade, would anyone recommend a College ID camp at this age?
Libertyville FC 1974 (IL) Rockford Raptors (IL) Are in a Midwest conference for E64, not sure what level team it would be for them.
FCU is a north shore juggernaut. A lot of parents have no problem driving up north for more opportunities. 20 yrs ago, parents would have...
South Suburbs, willing to travel for him to play around.
Where do kids play pickup soccer at? Son is getting restless.
Yes, that is his program.
Forgot about U of C, will add them to the list. Northwestern is a drive but I'm sure i can make a good food detour.
Kinda off subject but here i go. On the rare occasion you get a free weekend away from our own kids games, take advantage of the local college...
Why is that a wow? What were they doing instead of State Cup?
Are the state cups watered down? Do clubs choose other tournaments instead? Don't understand how so few teams involved in it?

Regarding the fire academy, the even this week did the following. Split kids into groups Play 2 scrimmages Do a timed run See you later....
Can anyone speak to how the Fire Academy selection process works. Websites are full of lies at times :)
This week in soccer- Players still waiting on uniforms. Futsal signup has already begun. Illinois ODP is more expensive than other states!!!
I meant something new as in- He likes Fifa 20 on PS4, lets sign up for travel soccer without ever playing. But it's only preseason, I might be...
How was everyone's Soccer weekend? Mine was a reality check, Strength in numbers for talent pools. To many clubs within an area that aren't in...
All i saw was the trick shot challenge after the fact. They need to get a major network to go ALL IN, if they really cared.
What is the NISL select program?
If you had an aspiring 13u player that wants to be a pro, what are some realistic goals that you would set. My experience is coaching basketball.
@Evos Is that universal change for MLS or just fire. My son is 11 and the game within the game is scary as a parent. Hope for the best!
