Chicago City Academy

Players who are excelling within the club environment are selected through our ongoing assessment process to step into the top level teams from U8-U19.

The U11+ Boys teams compete in the Pre ECNL, ECNL RL, EA, or E64 NL.

The U13+ Girls teams compete in the DPL with the plan to competing in ECNL or GA for Fall 2026. Confirmation coming the end of February usually.

High school players (ages 14-19) can continue representing their school teams - girls in the spring and boys in the fall - while also competing with the club in opposite seasons.

Our College Player Pathway provides the support and guidance needed to navigate that journey year round while in your high school season. Additionally, we offer unique international opportunities for players interested in a gap year experience.

International Events

After a successful trip to Ireland this past summer competing in the Super Cup Northern Ireland (SCNI), we will be looking to add international and national high level events for academy teams in the summer.
