Check it out! Spartan FC and Glenview SC players and families should go to www.fc1academy.com to explore FC-1 Academy’s newly launched website. As was previously announced, FC-1 Academy is a joint competitive soccer program created by SFC and GSC to expand playing opportunities and the level of competition for U13-U19 boys and girls teams. The website will be the hub for FC-1 Academy news and information. Tryout dates, times, and registration (go to Tryouts tab on left) are now available for all U13-U19 players. New content will be added on an ongoing basis, so please bookmark the site and visit it often.

Thanks to everyone who came out for the Parent’s Night Out event at Marcello’s! We danced the night away and raised more than $9,000 for next season’s Spartan FC fee scholarships.  This year, 18 Northbrook resident players and 3 non-Northbrook residents received scholarships.  Scholarship applications are completely blind and confidential and are administered by Glencoe Family Services.

A huge thank you to the Parent’s Night Out committee chair Kirsten Whipple and committee members Toby Pleszkun, Patti Wenzel, Celia Bullock, Stacy Leiter, and Mike Allenson, who created a rockin’ evening complete with fantastic music and dancing to Northbrook’s own Out of Control, delicious food and drink, and creative team baskets.  And of course the 50/50 raffle was a tremendous hit with the Crispin family taking home a nice little nest egg!  If you didn’t have a chance to attend this year, we’re sorry you had to miss it, but please circle your calendars for next year’s event!
