DIETERICH BANK FIELDHOUSE
January 2023 marked an exciting new phase for Crew Soccer with the addition of The Fieldhouse and our first indoor training facility.
The opening of The Fieldhouse (located just outside of Columbia, IL) created the opportunity to further increase our training opportunities for players. This fully renovated indoor space allows for multiple uses including footskills development, individual and small group training sessions, coach development and more.
Being indoor and convenient to the vast majority of our players and coaches, inclement weather events means less cancellations and more stability in scheduling for parents! This space in addition to our practice fields at Oerter Park and Columbia Soccer Club fields gives the ultimate flexibility to our coaches.
