Storm FC joins EA League MidWest Conference

Storm FC has been invited to join the Elite Academy League MidWest conference. The EA League MidWest platform will consist of teams from Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and us in North Texas.

We are super excited to offer this platform to our players, coaches, teams, and families. WE have worked with many of these club leaders and with the expert guidance and support from the EAL we are looking forward to raising our standards yet again.

Storm FC is dedicated to the continual development of our players and by offering this top-level competition platform and the national/Regional events we can prepare players for professional development or college level play.

We will be utilizing our partner Trace to record every game and provide players with media feedback to aid development. Trace uses player trackers which in turn creates automatic game and player moment clips.

Together with PlayerMaker technology, our club Coaching education application, and partnership with Tranmere Rovers (England) and their player/coach education courses, we intend to raise the level of players' development and coaching standards in the communities that we support.
