Customer Testimonials

We really enjoy the positive encouraging environment, once-a-week program and wonderful coaches & referees.

Good times and coaching!

Everyone gets to participate. Children make new friends .

Ease of registering and very organized at the fields. My son loves playing with i9 sports.

Good for kids new to playing sports.

The coaches really help the kids learn the sport. As a single mom, I really appreciate the way they take time to ensure the kids understand the different positions and the over all sport. Most of all the kids have a great time while learning and playing.

The only flaw was during the initial sign up, it was stating that the location was going to be in the Norwood Park area. This was one of the main reasons we signed up for this program. Then a few days before the actual practice started, they gave an Elgin location, which is an 40 min drive to and from where we live. That was not cool but kept my daughter enrolled because we had already talked about going and she was excited about it. And I’m glad we kept her in! The staff and coaches are really good with the kids and really teach them skills on how to play the game. Over all, we are really happy with this clinic and will sign her up again but I hope this time it will be closer to home!

I love how i9 is focused on fun and skill, not competitiveness. It's wholesome and family oriented. We have enjoyed all of our experiences since joining!

Coaches are amazing with the kids, so patient and helpful. I also really appreciate the fact the practices are right before games. Makes it a lot easier on our already packed schedules. Thank you!!

Games and practices are on weekends

Love the I9 program. Especially, for beginners. Staff is really great with the kids and the games are fun.

Its a great start for the children to start learning about the sports without feeling pressured. I love that the coaches let the kids have fun and enjoy the sport.

The coaches are great.

Easy 1 day a week commitment

My daughter has had some really good coaches in this program. She's learned some good skills that has helped her as she plays for her high school team. I also like that you play at LM High School which is conveniently located for us.

Consistent days, weekly skill lessons and fun games. My daughter is improving weekly.

I like the structure of learning skills and then playing a game. It’s a good way for kids to become familiar with sports.

That its only a day a week commitment. This is a great introductory to this sport.

Very friendly and patient coaches with little kids and know to get their attention and follow the instructions or rules of the game in a fun way for the little children. My son loves it

We love that the seasons are not too long. We also like having practice before the game. The one-day-a-week commitment works well for us - especially since our athlete is 5. The coaches have been amazing and caring people. Thank you!

The coaches!!!! They are absolutely amazing. We would come back for them. But I do have to say, your league is too high priced for 4 year olds soccer.

We enjoyed that for 5 year olds the program was not too intense for the age group and was more focused about starting to learn sports and having fun. I enjoyed practice before games rather than on separate days and having a couple weeks off in the schedule. We enjoyed the season a lot.

From a school friend

Our coaches are wonderful!

The character building , practice and games combined . The integrity of the coaches

I loved that practice and games were same day. It was so much easier on me and was a leading factor in signing my child up for the soccer program. I work full time and not many other sports programs are as accommodating.

Coach Alesia! We’ve been so lucky to have an amazing coach and team for the last three seasons. I also love that there is a Sunday league. I’m a single mom with two kids, a full time job, and a full school schedule. Having the weekends for sports is probably the only reason we’ve been able to keep doing it.

The coaches are so great with the kids.

Internet and school

We like that all kids play. Our child wants to play but he’s not a top tier athlete so this program is great for giving him a good experience to play and develop.
