TEAM CHICAGO PATHWAY
In this phase of our competitive club program, our ACADEMY PHASE (DEVELOPMENT PHASE) we prioritize developing players' technical development. We focus on refining player's individual abilities to dominate opponents one-on-one, while also introducing teamwork concepts like spacing and combinations. Overall, we aim to prepare players comprehensively for the next level of our program (Futures), ensuring they are not only technically proficient but are ready to take on tactical information.
