A New Era in Club Soccer: Michigan Stars Elite

Michigan Stars Elite

Michigan Stars FC Semi-Pro

Rochester Soccer Club’s "Michigan Lightning” and Macomb County’s “Michigan Revolution F.C.” will be joining forces to form a new and separate elite level club - Michigan Stars Elite. This will provide a greater player pathway to the top national levels of youth soccer, college, semi-pro, and professional opportunities. This new structure still allows the Lightning and Revolution Clubs to focus and function in their original community foundations and programs, but now adds a pathway to even higher levels for players from each organization. To continue our advancement to get us to that next level, we have also developed a partnership with the Michigan Stars FC - Michigan's premier professional soccer club. This exciting partnership with the Michigan Stars FC, establishing us as their youth development academy, allows our new and community clubs to now have a truly vertical pathway for player growth and development, ranging from recreation to pro. It also allows us the advantage to have a dedicated home for practices and games, and a planned stadium for the big games.
