SocrLabs Training Programs

When you respond with “just a minute”, it means you’ll reply or get onto the task immediately when you finish what you’re doing currently.
When your kids yell out “just a minute”… well, that can mean a whole lot of things.
At SocrLabs, when we talk about a “minute”, we’re talking about being “on the ball” for a minute straight, or attacking a speed drill for a minute.
And if you want to make time stand still, try blasting over hurdles, then passing, then shooting, then more hurdles, passing and shooting a few more times… all inside of a minute at full speed and your highest intensity. Read More

I ADMIT IT...WE WERE UGLY


When we started SocrLabs a little over a year ago, we used only half the space we now have.
The rest was filled with the items we were storing in the warehouse so when we fixed up the back half, we didn't "pretty up" the front half.
When we opened the front half in the spring, things got too busy and we didn't have enough time to focus on anything but the new equipment implementation and the new training that went with it. Read More

FUNCTIONAL FITNESS - AN AMAZING WORKOUT


If you want to see kids work hard, they need to "want" to work hard and there's no better way to get kids to work hard over-&-over, day-after-day, than to make the training competitive and fun. It's why kids are always more tired and sore after a game than after even the toughest practice. Read More

Does it seem like “MORE OF THE SAME” to you?



Have you ever noticed "private soccer training" looks an awful lot like "normal soccer training"... but with fewer kids?

Same cones, same drills, same dribbling, same shooting... same as always but with greater focus on fewer people.

And that's not all bad; that singular focus can provide great feedback for young athletes.

But shouldn't private training bring more to the party (or pitch in this case)?

How about more technology, more measurement, more variety, more speed, more technical skills, more dynamic reaction, more technical skills and more game style touches?

And most importantly, how about more noticeable improvement in a drastically reduced timeframe? The kind of improvement that you can visibly see with your own eyes versus the improvement you're told about? Read More

ARE YOUR SOCCER SKILLS "IMPROVING" OR "EXPANDING"?

Soccer practice is really good at helping players “improve” but a lot less good at helping kids “expand”.
Often times, good players are really good at doing things the wrong way.
Instead of working on their left foot skills, they’ll get really good at using their right foot in the wrong way. But they’ll get so good at it that it works really well.
Until they get into the games with other really good players.
Suddenly, those right footed “cheats” aren't working as their opponents start to key in on the single option this player has available. It’s not hard to figure out and good defenders pick it up after 2 or 3 encounters. Read More

SocrLabs: Making a Difference



SocrLabs is for serious soccer players who are willing to push themselves really hard so that they can give their opponent a big competition in every game. It is true that SocrLabs is way different from other sports training facilities and the difference doesn't lie just in the spelling of the word soccer, the difference goes far deeper than that. One might wonder if it is a soccer training facility then why don't they use the usual spelling, that is because they do not believe doing anything usual.


At the SocrLabs facility, soccer training takes a whole new form, unlike other sports training facilities it does not restrict itself to providing only regular strength training programs, instead it focuses only on providing soccer specific training. The idea here is to make a difference in the way the players train themselves.

The regular training programs could only help them reach a certain level where they can be expected to give an average performance like fellow players. But a team made up of average performers cannot be expected to win a tournament. To be winners they need to be armed with far more superior skills and techniques which they can easily pick up at the SocrLabs. The main aim of this indoor soccer training facility is to help the soccer players be more skilled so that they could be winners.

It would take you just one tour of the facility to understand that the difference of SocrLabs with other training facilities goes beyond the spelling. This place is the ultimate training ground for the soccer players, where they undergo advanced training without getting exhausted in scorching heat. To be better players they need to increase their speed, must possess superior soccer techniques and excellent reaction time.

Here at SocrLabs, they have access to the best soccer training drills for youth,which are way different from the regular, monotonous drills they are obliged to perform at regular team training sessions. These are fun, so the players do not skip the drills, the players also get to try their hands and feet on advanced training gears which increase their efficiency. All the training programs here are designed to help players acquire better soccer skills which are executed under the supervision of experienced coaches.

Players who train at SocrLabs they feel the difference while they undergo training and make the difference when they take on their opponent on the field. The difference in their performance before     a couple of SocrLabs training sessions and post the sessions is highly visible to the parents, as well as to the coaches.

So, it's good to be different if you could make a difference.

Come to SocrLabs for Soccer Specific Training

Every soccer coach would agree that training holds the key to success, the more you train the better are your chances of success. But if you want to perform better and win more games then you need to fine-tune your current training schedule and find the right training facility too. As a coach you know that sometimes it becomes impossible to train outside due to harsh weather conditions. So, the team needs to have access to a good indoor training facility where they could still continue to practice their moves without having to feel burnt out.

Although there are quite a few indoor sports training facilities around, not all of these are right for soccer practice. Finding the right training facility will help you go further, but if you get stuck with the wrong one, then all you would be doing is wasting your time and money. So,comparing  different facilities is a good idea as it would help you pick the right one.

Libertyville Sports Complex is definitely a popular destination for athletes looking for indoor sports training. The place has a batting cage, 2 field hockey/lacrosse style turf fields,volleyball courts and many other interesting features. But it is good for teams looking for general training, and since it is a multi-sports facility, it does not offer anything specific in terms of equipment or training programs for that matter. So, for soccer training this is certainly not the right place.

When your aim is to train hard to be a winner, you need to go beyond your mundane training schedule and need to adopt an edgier training program which will be designed keeping the needs of soccer in mind. SocrLabs is an indoor soccer training libertyville facility, which is dedicated to help soccer players transform into elite players. Here training programs are designed to help soccer players be more agile, faster during every match. Hi-tech training equipment are provided to them so that they can be mentally agile as well and have a better reaction time. Every move of theirs is monitored by coaches who rectify their mistakes and show them how to make right moves.

So, if you are serious about your soccer training, then come to the SocrLabs facility and experience what soccer specific training is all about.

LIBERTYVILLE SPORTS COMPLEX

SocrLabs is the ideal indoor soccer training facility unlike Libertyville Sports Complex, which offers general sports training. For more read on.

SocrLabs: the Indoor Soccer Training Facility in Libertyville

Those who have been to the Libertyville indoor sports complex, they are well familiar with the place and they would agree on one thing that it is a great indoor training facility for athletes. Since it is a multi-sport facility, it is basically a training ground for all players, regardless of the kind of sports they are associated with. But would it be alright for a soccer player looking for soccer specific training?

If you happen to know anything about sports, then you would know that every kind of sports comes with unique techniques and demands a specific set of skills of the players involved. It is needless to point out that training regimen of players would take shape depending on the nature of sports. Physical training is mandatory for all athletes because it helps them be stronger, sharper and fitter, but for that general training is provided at sports training centers, but that training would not be of much help for an glsa libertyville aspirant.

Soccer like all other sports demands certain skills from the players, regular outdoor practices which the coach organizes for the kids help them in a big way. But to rise above the level of an average player, they need something edgier which they can never get through an outdoor training program. Indoor training facilities like Libertyville indoor sports complex, cannot be of much help either as these do not have the necessary equipment or, training program for soccer.

To bridge this gap SocrLabs was conceptualized, at this indoor soccer training libertyville facility only soccer specific training programs have been developed keeping in mind the particular needs of soccer. Players here can train using advanced training gears under the guidance of experienced coaches. Here they train to be more faster, agile on the field as well as they improve all their crucial soccer techniques. All in all, here they transform into elite players.

Bring your soccer team to SocrLabs and watch them grow into better players.

Hidden Secrets To Explosive Running Speed


Youth soccer players don't really need to be taught to run, they already know how to run... right?
But then why do we teach them the best way to kick a soccer ball when they already know how to kick a ball?
It's not a matter of can a soccer player run, it's a matter of helping them run faster. To make that explosive first step, or first 3 steps needed to create the gap, to build separation between themselves and the person covering them.  Read More

Learning To Run... Fast!




Do kids really need to be taught how to run? No, not really. But teaching them to run better is definitely going to make them run faster. And I have never seen a really fast soccer player choose to run slowly and not create the separation they need to make the play. If you think speed is an important ingredient for having more fun on the soccer field, then take a test drive of SocrLabs with 2 FREE passes. Just sign in from our website at http://www.SocrLabs.com

PRACTICE TIRED TO PLAY TIRED (WELL)



Real world, game type fatigue is what you can't really see in these short clips. The first 25 seconds of sprinting goes pretty smoothly but the last 35 to 45 seconds is where the advancement comes from for these driven soccer players. This fatigue factor combined with rapid reaction and ball touch drills is what gives these kids "the edge"! Read More

Sharpen Your Soccer Skills at SocrLabs

Every soccer coach would agree that it takes loads and loads of practice for a soccer player to perform well in a match, unfortunately they would also agree that most of the team members hate showing up for practice sessions. They neither like the session, nor do they prefer going through the drills that coaches ask them to do. In such situations, they end up missing out on important drills which are designed to enhance their stamina and strength.

They cannot be entirely blamed too, these practice sessions are mostly held outdoors, sometimes during excessive heat or cold. The drills are monotonous, there is no variation and the worst part is these are physically draining, so no doubt the players hate these sessions despite knowing the significance of the drills. They know that the functional speed drills they are asked to do would eventually help them be more faster on the field, but they need something more edgy that will hold their interest.

At SocrLabs, a different approach is taken which is why the players love attending all the training sessions here. Since it is an indoor training facility, the kids do not have to be exposed to extreme weather conditions. Furthermore the drills are innovative and full of fun, so the players never get bored or tired.

The apt use of advanced training gears make the training programs even more intriguing. Whether a player needs reaction time improvements or wants to better his speed, he will be put through a training program suitable for his particular need and he will have access to hi-tech gears like Fitlight
equipment. Instead of skipping the training sessions, the kids just look forward to attending them. Their enthusiasm and motivation make all the difference and they end up acquiring better soccer skills.

So, if your team is not happy doing the boring drills on the field, bring them to SocrLabs, they will love the change.

For Edgier Soccer Training Turn to SocrLabs

To be a successful soccer player you need to have the right combination of skills and techniques. Passion for the game is also important, but it won't take you too far in your career unless you master the right techniques. For every soccer player learning the techniques at an early age is vital, because if they start their soccer career with the wrong techniques and weaknesses, then in the long run these would end up being the biggest hurdles for their career.

Just imagine a team which has players with technical deficiencies pitted against a highly skilled team in a championship game. You don't have to be an expert to guess the outcome of the game, the team which has better skills on its side would simply whitewash their opponent on the ground. So, if you expect good performance from your team then you need to focus on your players. You need to make sure that no matter what kind of technical deficiency, they have, with proper training they are able to overcome that.

The kind of training they receive at the regular training sessions would not serve this particular purpose. They need advanced training which they can receive at SocrLabs, it is an excellent facility for youth soccer development. Younger players can really benefit a lot from the advanced training provided here. Since they are at an early stage of their career it would be easier for them to overcome their problem and build new skills.

This indoor youth soccer development facility is absolutely different as it puts the entire focus on soccer. The place is an ideal place for training as it is fully equipped with hi-tech training gears, the training program are innovative and full of fun which the players enjoy. These programs are designed to help players gain more speed, have faster reaction time, be more agile. All in all, they train to be skilled players overcoming all sorts of deficiencies.

SocrLabs is the best training ground not just for the elite, but also for young soccer players. So, get ready for some advanced training.

Improve Your Soccer Skills at SocrLabs

No matter which sport you play, you need to be at the top of your game to be able to clinch a win. Especially in a sport like soccer, which is a team game you simply can't afford to lag behind because of some weakness of yours or, some bad habit which becomes a hurdle for you during every game you play. You need to get rid of the weakness if you want to continue to be on the team or else, some other player with the right set of skills would soon be replacing you.

But it is easier said than done, players often develop bad habit like using only one foot instead of both, which prevent them from utilizing their full potential on the field. Such habits make them a burden for the team when they have the talent to become an asset for it. If these bad habits are not corrected at the right time, then the player would fail to perform over and over again and fall behind others. With right training any player can overcome such bad habits, but your regular training sessions on the field would hardly be of any use in this case.

The SocrLabs facility is just the right place for handling such issues, this is a youth indoor soccer development center, which offers soccer specific training. The training programs here are much edgier and the use of advanced gears make things even better for the players who come here for training. None of the drills they perform are like the regular ones they do on the field, these help each player work on his problem areas and enhance their skills.

Since the players at SocrLabs have access to every kind of advanced equipment coupled with innovative and customized training programs, they find it much easier to find solutions to their problems. With training they eventually find success at getting rid of their weakness and develop skills which would help them on the field.

Bring your entire team to the SocrLabs facility today and watch them transform into elite players.

GLSA Players Visit SocrLabs for Complementary Training

For every passionate soccer player in Illinois, being a part of GLSA 1974 elite soccer program is a dream. It has been at the core of youth soccer for a long period of time and till this date it continues to be a symbol of aspiration for a young soccer player here. Those who are well familiar with youth soccer knows how it offers all round support to the players.

To be a part of the prestigious GLSA soccer program, players need more than just talent, the willingness to push themselves to perform better irrespective of any hurdles and situations is an essential quality. The GLSA players do go through training programs conducted throughout the year, they don't even get spared during the bitter cold winter months, at that time they have to undergo glsa indoor training program. The reason behind putting the players through such grilling sessions is simple, in order to compete at high level championships they need to uplift the quality of their game and that can only be achieved through hardcore training.

However, the problem with such training is that it is not customized according to the specific needs of the players. All the GLSA Soccer players receive the same training, they attend the same practice sessions, camps and clinics, so there is no scope available to them to rise above the average players. To make a difference they need to have access to different training programs which SocrLabs provide.

The best part about SocrLabs programs is the fact that these are soccer specific and have been developed to help players work on their soccer skills to be more edgy on the ground. When you pair   on-field training with the SocrLabs indoor training you could expect spectacular results. The facility has advanced equipment which help players enhance their speed, agility, strength, reaction time. All in all the facility is ideal for transforming an average glsa soccer player into an elite player.

Come and visit SocrLabs with your entire team and get ready for some hardcore action.

The 30 Second Threshold




"Are those blinking lights a gimmick?"
We often hear comments like that from people because the world of youth soccer development is still "cone" centric versus the next-gen "technology" centric approach that we take at SocrLabs.
But pay particular attention at the 26-second mark of this video and you'll easily see how his fatigue causes him to physically slow down but he keeps pushing through to finish the drill.
Because we measure and record everything, the kids all push as hard as possible because they always want to win... even at the drills.
Next gen technology producing first rate soccer athletes - only at SocrLabs!

Why the Warren Blue Devils Keeps on Winning?

Not every team wins every single match they play, not every soccer player ends up scoring the winning goal, but those who end up doing these seemingly impossible tasks they deserve to be lauded with superlatives. The Warren Blue Devils team has been really consistent with their performance, after all winning seven matches back to back is not a simple feat.

The reason behind the Warren Blue Devils team's success is their dedication towards the game. They are passionate about the sport and they know that it takes a lot of hard work to be a winner on the ground. The regular practice sessions all the teams go through are good up to a point, but your performance would only be average this way and nothing more than that. Furthermore, these sessions are usually despised by most players as these are highly boring and physically exhausting. Winners need a bigger push to beat their competition in every game they play.

The Warren high school soccer team didn't waste time and made their way straight to the SocrLabs facility in Mundelein. This is an indoor training facility which offers soccer specific training for players who are willing to do some extra work to rise above the rest. What sets this facility apart from others is the fact that it only focuses on providing training programs which would enhance the soccer skills of elite players.

When the players visited the SocrLabs facility they enjoyed themselves because the drills they perform here are not like the regular ones they get to do on the field. All the drills are fun and the use of advanced gears make the whole thing even more enjoyable for them. The facility is for elite players who are given cutting edge aids so that they can have better speed, control, agility than their opponent. The team certainly was happy with their practice which was far more edgy than what they usually do.

Stop being average and get ready to give your team better weapons, visit SocrLabs today for a better tomorrow.

Learn Soccer the Fun Way at SocrLabs

You can't expect to achieve success in any field unless and until you are willing to work hard. This holds especially true for those involved in sports. How can you expect to win a match if you do not practice hard all year round? Players are well aware of this bitter truth, they do have the passion to perform well in every match they play, but they hate the hard work they have to do on the field every day.

If you happen to play soccer then you know how important it is for you and your teammates to attend every training session your coach plans for you. But you do have to admit that you all hate being through those grilling sessions, where you have to perform one exhausting drill after the other in the scorching heat getting drenched in sweat. You would rather skip the whole thing, but you also know the benefit of these drills. After all, these have been designed to strengthen you as a player, so that you could give your best when you enter the field and help beat your opponent.

Most coaches have a problem training their team because not all of the players remain consistent with their training. What if there was a middle ground where players would willingly work harder without feeling exhausted? Well, now you have access to SocrLabs which takes the pain out of soccer training.

At SocrLabs, things are so different than the regular training sessions. This indoor facility has cutting edge soccer development gear, experienced coaches and fun training programs. The kids who come here for training never complain, instead they enjoy doing the drills here because these are not like the regular drills. Furthermore, since it is an indoor training facility they do not have to face extreme heat or cold, which is why they never feel exhausted.

Here hi-tech soccer training is provided by means of advanced gears and carefully designed programs which aim to help players be more physically and mentally agile in the field. The coaches are always around to lend a helping hand. The best part of  SocrLabs is that the kids love being here and they actually enjoy working hard.

Be a part of this incredibly fun soccer journey, just bring your team and watch them have a rollicking time.

Dipt4Sports VS SocrLabs:A Comparative Analysis

Practice makes perfect, and for an athlete practice is everything, the more he or she trains the better  they could be expected to perform during a match. But there are so many different kinds of sports each with its own technicalities, techniques, formats, rules and so on and so forth. You cannot point out two sports which are alike, every kind of sport demands unique skills of the players involved in it. So how can a general training program suffice for all athletes?

Take for example, the game of soccer which is way different from football, it has its own rules and format. So a soccer player who is aspiring to be an elite player someday needs practice, loads of practice, but with the right kind of equipment and guidance which a general sports training facility like Dipt4Sports can never provide them with. Although, Dipt4Sports is a well-known indoor training facility for athletes and it caters to athletes from every field. Whether you are a track athlete or a baseball player, if you are looking for a training facility to improve your functional fitness, speed then dipt4sports is the place for you.

However, if you play soccer then SocrLabs is the only choice you have. This is a unique indoor training facility in Mundelein, which offers soccer specific training. It actually makes no sense in doing a dipt4sports comparison with SocrLabs because both facilities work on different levels. At SocrLabs the players are provided with advanced gears which are designed to improve their reaction time, speed. The players are guided by soccer coaches who have years of experience and most importantly all the drills, training programs are designed to help players be more physically and mentally agile.

So, if you are a soccer player or a coach then SocrLabs is the best destination for you. Go for a training session here, you would definitely feel the difference.

SocrLabs VS TCBoost: Make the Right Choice

In any sports the athletes need to undergo proper training schedules in order to give their performance on the field. Although, most of the training regimens they are exposed to only help them build overall strength and stamina. Athletic training of any generic nature can never fulfill the core needs of an athlete as every type of sports has sits own specific needs and an athlete needs certain kind of skills to be the best in his field. So one has to be really selective about the sports training facility they choose to train with. If you are a soccer player what kind of training facility should you opt for?

It is a one-of-a-kind training facility which offers soccer specific training programs only.

There is no denying the fact that outdoor training sessions are vital for every player, but not always it becomes possible for the coach to drag all the players to the ground and make them do the drills. The weather conditions are not always ideal for an outdoor soccer practice session with your team and you and your team would definitely not feel comfortable running around on the field when the temperature is too high or too low.

The day warren township girls varsity soccer team made the visit to the SocrLabs, the weather outside was really cold. The girls would have to go through a rough time battling the chilly wind outside. Instead, they had the time of their lives at the training center attending a fun indoor training session together. This center is specifically built for soccer players, which is why the soccer players have access to cutting edge gears for honing soccer skills.

The warren high school soccer team basically enjoyed every single drill here while the coaches watched their progress. The drills the girls did here are designed to help improve speed, agility and reaction time. None of the girls seemed bored for a moment, instead they were only excited to try their hands on the gears and they were really motivated to perform well. All in all they loved their experience at the center and they are probably contemplating another fun-filled training session at the center soon.

SocrLabs, is different from other training centers as it provides only soccer specific training here. So, if you and your team are eager enough to try something new then come here for a free training session.

Have Better Soccer Speed and Control to Be a Winner

There are plenty of players who play soccer at school level, at the college level and some of them end up representing their state and even country in the long run. But how far a soccer player would go in his career entirely depends on his potential and the effort he puts in each game. Not always a player ends up being the chosen one in a team, and this happens not just for the lack of talent, but for not having the right skills which could decide the fate of a match. Mastering soccer speed and control is essential for every soccer player.

More often than not a player gets dropped from a team because of poor performance. The regular drills performed during outdoor training sessions do not help them in a big way, partly because the drills are so boring and physically exhausting that most players only do these halfheartedly.

These players need access to training programs which are specifically designed to help them acquire every soccer skill needed to become a winner and SocrLabs is just the right facility for that. This indoor soccer training center in Illinois is unique in more ways than one, it not only provides soccer specific training, but it is also fully equipped with state-of-the-art gears to add that extra edge to soccer training. The kids go through fun drills here,which cover every aspect of the game.

At this center, which provides soccer training indoors the coaches put the kids through drills to help them master speed which is undoubtedly a key ingredient for success. But for a player having control is equally important and at SocrLabs stress is given on helping a player master both these crucial skills. Training sessions are designed to ensure that a player overcomes the hurdles to acquire the skills of an elite player.

Your team could certainly perform a way lot better if they undergo the soccer specific indoor training programs at SocrLabs. Give it a try today.

I'm definitely not "all right"...


Breaking old habits and starting new one; studies are all over the map when it comes to defining exactly what is needed to break an old bad habit and replace it with a new good habit.

But one thing is universally accepted when it comes to habit… it requires repetition.

Whether it’s 21-days or 7-days or 50-days, the bottom line is that it takes repetition to make these bad habits disappear and the new habits to “stick”.

Recently a new group of kids came into SocrLabs and 1 kid in particular simply had no capability to use his left foot.  Read More

Recently a new group of kids came into SocrLabs and 1 kid in particular simply had no capability to use his left foot.
He’s been playing soccer on a club team for 3 years but he did everything with his right foot no matter how the ball was played to him. 3-years of club soccer and still using only half his capability.  Read More

Kids, Soccer and Blinking Lights


We’ve all heard the complaints about how kids “don’t want to put in the work” to become good at soccer.

They don’t like to run, they don’t like to perform drills, they don’t like to do anything but screw around and play games or scrimmage.

And from what I’ve seen; this is true.
