Exciting news for the FC Wisconsin Girls soccer program!
May 05 2013 - FCMN Exec Cmte of BOD
May 5th, 2013 - We are pleased to announce that Jake Provan has renewed his commitment to the FC Wisconsin Nationals. Jake will continue to coach several teams in our girls program and will become an integral leader in our new soccer school. Jake also brings a wealth of business experience, so he will be charged with attracting new sponsorships and business associations.
Jake Provan has received job offers from several other soccer clubs and has only been with us a few short months, so when we asked him why he chose to commit himself long-term to FC Wisconsin, here is what he shared with us, “I’m excited about the club’s long-term vision and commitment to player development, from the very young to the ECNL and USSDA Academy levels. I’m proud to be part of it! I look forward to assisting the club in its player’s development and contributing to the club’s vision.”
FC Milwaukee Announces New Staff, New Brand and New Structure!
Apr 21 2013 - FCMN Exec Cmte of BOD
April 21, 2013- In exciting and unprecedented moves to create a vastly improved soccer experience for Wisconsin players, FC Milwaukee is hiring multiple new staff, launching a new brand, and changing its curriculum and structure for the 2013-2014 season.
The impetus for change began through meetings over the past several weeks between FC Milwaukee Nationals and Sockers FC – Wisconsin regarding a potential merger. Over the course of both internal and joint discussions regarding vision, goals, and organizational structures, it became clear that the clubs were not in alignment, and a merger would be impractical. These internal discussions, however, were tremendously valuable in clarifying and focusing the long-term vision and goals of FC Milwaukee. Through this process, the club has determined to reaffirm its commitment to excellence at youth soccer’s highest levels, refocus its emphasis on individual player development, and modernize its curriculum with a new staff, a new brand, and a new coaching structure.
