SBW Alliance looking for soccer players for 2016/2017 season!

Good morning!

SBW Alliance hold tryouts once a year.
The mandated USSF birth year changes have caused widespread panic (needless) but panic – we urge you to try out at any of the other clubs in the area and compare us.

We offer our players the opportunity to train 4 nights a week in the Spring and Fall. Two team training sessions and Two foot skills. We believe individual creativity is as important as team training.

SBW Alliance is committed to building a soccer club that allows players of all ages and abilities to play soccer – in the past year we have accomplished the following:

Our HS Girls went to their first college showcase in Ohio and won all 3 games and did not concede a goal.

The same group won numerous indoor tournaments and many of our freshmen, sophomore and juniors girls played varsity soccer for many of the local high schools.

We have our first team (U13 girls) playing in the IWSL Premiership (Highest Division) after they won 9 of their 10 games in A Division in the Fall (they tied the other one)
The same group is now participating in the MRL qualifiers and Presidents Cup.

Our U12 Boys won their division and our U12 girls came second in AB.

We rebuilt many rosters over the Winter season to enable players to develop at their own speed, EVERY PLAYER HAS THE RIGHT TO DEVELOP AT THEIR OWN SPEED – THIS IS A MARATHON NOT A SPRINT.

If we have bad weather in Spring/Fall we have the use of THE MAC in Crystal Lake for team training – we do not see the benefit of having players outside in artic conditions.

We are implementing a two tier pricing system – we also offer a direct pathway to get to the top tier – the only requirement is the player put in the work.

If you are paying with credit card – fees MUST be paid in full on signing day. If you are paying by cash or check – 50% is paid on signing day and the other 50% paid on September 1st. Payment plans are available – please contact operations@sbwafc.com to set one up!

One program is $999 per year and the other is $725 per year.

HS program for Boys and Girls will be $725 per year.

The main differences are outlined in the flyer – we will NOT have teams at a higher level just for the sake of it which means all ages will NOT have teams at a higher price point. Teams playing at AB level or above for the IWSL Girls and Level 2 or above for Boys in YSSL will be the benchmark for the higher fee.

Come try us out and see what we can offer your player.

AS ALWAYS – the 3rd and ongoing playing members of your family are half priced!

1st Player – Full Price

2nd Player – Full Price

3rd Player – Half Price

Ongoing - Half Price

New players MUST REGISTER ONLINE by clicking the REGISTER button on the top right corner of this page or by copying and pasting the following link: http://www.sbwafc.com

Whether you have boys and girls that are new to the game or making the leap from a recreational team, travel soccer offers divisions for all skill levels. We are always looking for new players to add to our current teams as well as full recreational teams looking to try travel soccer at a fair price with as little pressure as possible.
