Illya Chakyr '17 Recruiting Profile

I came to United States in 5th grade. Before that I lived in Europe and played at the most competitive level. After arriving in U.S. for two years I did not play soccer at all. Coming back was a bit challenging but I discovered new way of seeing the game that helps me out a lot. In 2011, I went to try out for Port Orange Stingrays. Although, i was not confident about making the team, in the end of the day coach told me that he would like me to play with his team.In that team, I gained back my shape. Then after playing there for two years, I moved to Hallandale. In Hallandale, i started high school where i played on varsity team as a starter. My 10th and 11th grade year i was a captain, and we got 2 district runner-up titles. Parallel to school soccer, I was playing club soccer for PPO Heat Strikers.
