Friday Night Lights **NEW PROGRAM**

Come out and join us at this brand new program for Spring 2018.  The first 30 minutes will feature technical training with our Illinois FC professional staff coaches.  The technical training will focus on individual skill work such as ball mastery, dribbling, turning, passing & receiving, and finishing.  The last 90 minutes will be street soccer, where players will split into teams and play small-sided games.
