Vote For Team Evanston Players at the 2012 Olympics!
Of the 60+ girls from Illinois and beyond that attended last summer’s Julie Foudy Leadership Camp (IL region), 12 have completed their service projects and were entered into a contest (1st Prize-Trip to the 2012 London Olympics). Of those 12 girls, 3 are from Team Evanston: Julia Donati, Julia Kenney and Ella Roberts. The contest winner is chosen by a public vote which starts Feb 1st. There are fantastic service projects listed, but we’ve got a 3 in 12 chance, so please check out their projects and be sure to vote as much as you can. Way to go girls!

Team Evanston Runs Community Soccer Clinic

Over the holiday school break, Team Evanston partnered with the Fleetwood Jourdain Center to run a free 4 day Introduction to Soccer clinic. Director of Coaching Issac Moushi and several of his coaches acted as Camp Directors and led about dozen Team Evanston players (U14 Girls & High School Girls and Boys) who volunteered their time to be coaches. Not only was this a great community service project for our players and coaches, but the 35-45 children who attended the clinic each day really enjoyed learning about soccer and engaging with our Team Evanston players.
At the end of the clinic, Team Evanston donated new soccer balls to the Fleetwood Jourdain Center so they could continue to provide soccer time to their regular after school program children. In addition, Team Evanston and Betsy Jenkins, Fleetwood Jourdain’s Director, have decided to continue to offer a one hour clinic every Friday afternoon during this winter. Coach Santiago Rubio Gilabert will lead this Friday clinic with help from Team Evanston player volunteer coaches.

TE Gear
You may have received from Team Warehouse advertising TE gear on sale for the holidays. Team Warehouse has been the club’s uniform provider for the last several years, however this year we began the transition to Adidas uniforms through Chicago Soccer with our U08, U09, and High School teams. Although we have no objection to Team Warehouse advertising TE gear on sale, we’d like to let you know that starting next year all players will be required to purchase and use Adidas gear from Chicago Soccer. Thus, if you would like to purchase additional items, such as backpacks or tracksuits, we recommend that you purchase it from Chicago Soccer. This way you will avoid spending money on gear that you cannot use the fol lowing season. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!
