About Us
Illinois has been
developing some of the best players in the
nation over the last 10 years. In that time, the
level of play, the level of coaching and the
numbers of players and coaches has increased
tremendously.
For years now,
Illinois coaches have been concerned about a few
very important issues:
- The national association
does not provide educational opportunities
close enough for the majority of coaches to
benefit
- With the development of
clubs and the increased number of Directors
of Coaching, there is a need to educate and
develop younger coaches within the club
structure
- As coaching soccer
becomes a full time job for many, there is a
need for benefits not afforded to
individuals.
As the quality of
soccer progresses in the state of Illinois, and the
soccer community continues to grow, it is necessary
for the coaches of Illinois to progress as well. By
creating minimum standards of which we require of
ourselves and peers, by creating coaching
curriculums that will help develop our players; we
can lead the nation in the development of quality
coaches and soccer players.
Purpose
-
Unite the Illinois coaching
community
-
Provide benefits to members
that they can not receive else where
-
Draw national attention so as
to bring educational opportunities to
Illinois
Mission
Vision
-
Illinois has produced some of
the best soccer players in the nation over
the last 5 years, consistently sending more
players to prominent College programs,
National team Residency Programs,
International Clubs and the MLS, yet we
cannot get the USYSA to bring coaching
programs to our state. If Illinois coaches
can take a unified approach to licensing,
coaching etiquette and minimum standards of
coaching, we will continue to grow as
coaches and receive the educational benefits
we have been lacking up to this point
