Players in the league are college players, recent college players, players looking to become professional, ex-professional players, and highly skilled amateurs. The MWPL is affiliated with the professional National Independent Soccer Association (NISA). Rockford FC also competes in the Greater Chicago Soccer League (GCSL) and the Illinois State Cup and plays friendlies against other local and regional clubs, allowing players to gain additional playing time.

 

What are the age limits? All players 18 and up (or those who turn 18 before May 6th) are eligible to play, but athletes under the age of 18 need to have the proper waivers signed by a parent/guardian.
