Introducing Missouri Elite FC

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

Elite-LOGO-FinalMissouri Elite FC is a “Girls-Only” soccer club that has been providing training for six years in Southwest Missouri. You have known us as JB Marine Springfield but it’s time to spread our wings, much like the graduates of our training programs have. With alumni college players like Jessie Yach (Nixa career scoring leader), Regina Bodine (Willard) and Maggie Schrier (Glendale captain and Homecoming Queen), it’s easy to recognize our emphasis on training, sportsmanship and education.

In addition to the new name, the girls will be trading in their old green uniforms for new Argentina blue Adidas uniforms. However, the club name and colors are the only things that are changing. The club’s coaching philosophies and goals will remain the same. The club is committed to developing female athletes and will utilize female coaches who grew up playing in the area to assist with player development. The younger teams will continue to focus on skill development and fostering a true passion for the sport.

The older girls will continue to advance their knowledge and ability to take their game to the collegiate level. The club’s U18 team will travel to several college showcase tournaments where they will get exposure to college coaches from all over the region. The end goal is college scholarships for the girls who want to play college soccer.
