Being affliated with the MLS Chicago Fire team and being a part of their Fire Juniors Programming allows our club players unique opportunities that are not available at other local clubs. One such opportunity are the Chicago Fire Juniors All Star teams.
In 2007 the Chicago Fire youth programs took another step and introduced "All Star" Tournament Teams. These teams are made up of the VERY BEST PLAYERS from the Fire Youth Program’s in Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and Mississippi. These players will enter the very highest level tournaments both in this country and abroad. Players will be ’scouted’ at the Fire Cup and other tournaments and selected based on this and coach recommendations.
These teams can be at any age group, but with a special emphasis on the U13+ ages, and especially College Showcase aged teams.
Other opportunities include overseas tours and in 2007 these teams will play in Alves, Spain.
As well as the higher level teams there are constant opportunities to guest play on other Fire teams and this has happened at several age groups. This is open to all select and premier players and is based on the requirement of the team needing a player.
