ABOUT

Based in the northern suburbs of Chicago, IL The FC Stars is a boutique “European style” soccer academy that offers players a highly progressive and complete developmental training program.  Born from the idea that consistent hard work, passion, commitment and attitude are the basis of success, FC Stars focuses on building positive team culture and fostering a growth environment that is built on years of experience and a proven methodology.  Our staff is highly experienced, highly trained and licensed by the USSF.  

FC Stars started in the Spring of 2021.  The launch was assisted by the help of our community throughout northern Chicagoland and the support of one key partner/club FC Hawks, based in Park Ridge, IL who helped provide the club facilities, administration and critical support needed to successfully launch FC Stars. 

US SOCCER RENAISSANCE 2.0

FC Stars was created as a direct response to skyrocketing tuition fees and overplayed marketing programs that promised greatness, but failed to deliver.  Our philosophy is about attracting talented, hard working players, REGARDLESS OF ECONOMIC STATUS.  We have relationships with a network of local supporters and boosters who help to keep our program costs affordable so that we don't have to spare any details when it comes to staff, training and facilities.   

We believe that each player is highly unique and develops at an individual pace.  Our goal is simple: help each athlete become the best version of themselves possible both on and off the field.  We teach players how to set short-term and long-goals and provide them the necessary tools to analyze performance and measure results.
