The Illini Women's Club Soccer team's mission is to compete at the highest level of club intercollegiate soccer for the title of national champions at the annual NIRSA Championship Series Tournament. To accomplish this, we strive to be the best we can be during practice, regular season games and during the off-season. Tryouts are held every August during the first week of classes. We look for players who can better our team by their overall skill level, competitive spirit and good sportsmanship and teamwork on and off the field.
During the regular season in the Fall, we practice Monday through Thursday from 5-7pm at the Complex soccer fields across from FAR/PAR dorms. Practice is mandatory but is excused for exams, illness and family emergencies. We compete most weekends in September and October and travel to other schools by our own transportation. At the end of October we compete in the Regional tournament and in mid-November our goal is to compete at the NIRSA National Tournament.
During the off season in the Spring, we practice two nights a week indoors at the Irwin Indoor Facility. When the weather warms up, we practice outside to prepare for the annual Bradley Invitational in April.
We encourage you to take a look around our website and Facebook page! Please contact us with questions or interest in joining our team. Thank you!
