BUILDING BETTER SOCCER PLAYERS

Youth Soccer International

Mission

At Youth Soccer International (YSIFC), we are dedicated to nurturing the development of children aged 5 to 12, a pivotal stage where positive coaching can make a lasting impact. We believe these formative years are critical, not just for skill acquisition, but for instilling a lifelong love of the game. Our coaching philosophy emphasizes play, encouragement, and age-appropriate development, ensuring that children grow as players and people, without the pressure that often leads to early burnout.

Currently serving families in Lincoln Park and Lakeview, we focus on the physical and emotional needs unique to this age group, providing a fun, supportive environment where every child can thrive, both on and off the field. At Youth Soccer International, our goal is to inspire a deep, enduring passion for soccer and healthy movement that lasts a lifetime.

Our guiding principle is to provide a high-quality experience for every player."  This commitment shapes our decisions and actions as we continuously work to deliver the best possible environment for those who engage in our programs.
