This year, Forge walks together.

On Saturday, September 26, we’re stepping off the field and showing up for something bigger than soccer.

Forge families, players, coaches, and staff are coming together for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s – Fox Valley at Pottawatomie Park in St. Charles.

Games and practices are canceled for the day because we want our entire club there. Wear your Forge gear, bring your family, and walk alongside your teammates.

One club. One cause. One community.

Register for Forge Forward and help your team make an impact.

📅 Saturday, September 26
📍 Pottawatomie Park | St. Charles, IL

Let’s show the Fox Valley what Forge looks like when we move together.

HARD WORK. STRENGTH. WISDOM. ⚽️

Meet Samuel Marchi, head coach of our U11 and U13 teams!

Samuel began his professional soccer career with West Ham United in England before moving to the United States to play collegiate soccer at East Central College and William Penn University. After graduating, he returned to the UK to play for South Shields FC and most recently competed for Chicago Nation FC.

Samuel began his coaching career with SC Hammers and currently serves as the Defensive Coach at Triton College, where he helps develop and mentor collegiate student-athletes.

His coaching philosophy is built on three core principles: hard work, strength and wisdom. He believes success comes through relentless effort, physical and mental resilience, and making intelligent decisions both on and off the field.

“My goal is to help players grow not only as athletes, but also as confident and disciplined individuals.”

During Forge’s inaugural season, Samuel is most excited to help young players improve their technical skills, build confidence and deepen their understanding of the game.

FUN FACT: Away from the field, Samuel plays the drums! 🥁

We’re proud to have Samuel’s international experience and commitment to player development at Forge.

ONE GAME. MANY CULTURES. ENDLESS OPPORTUNITIES TO GROW.

Meet Jean-Bruno Omanga, coach of our U12 Gold team!

Jean-Bruno spent his early childhood between France and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, developing much of his soccer foundation in Amiens, France. After moving to Champaign, Illinois, at age 10, he continued building an impressive playing career across collegiate and semi-professional soccer.

He played at Parkland College and Purdue University Northwest, as well as for Amiens RC, Chicago City SC, Springfield FC, Edgewater Castle FC, Tryzub FC and Wisloka FC.

Primarily a right back and right winger, Jean-Bruno brings firsthand experience in defending, attacking, teamwork and decision-making. He also holds U.S. Soccer Grassroots 9v9 and 11v11 certifications.

His coaching philosophy focuses on developing the individual player in a positive, supportive and challenging environment. He encourages players to take risks, express their creativity and view mistakes as an important part of learning.

“I want every player to feel valued, confident and motivated to improve—developing their skills and decision-making while building character, discipline and respect for the game.”

During Forge’s inaugural season, Jean-Bruno is excited to build meaningful relationships with his players and create a fun, challenging environment where they can grow individually and as a team.

FUN FACT: Jean-Bruno speaks five languages—French, Spanish, Lingala, English and Swahili! His favorite player is Zinedine Zidane, and his favorite club is Paris Saint-Germain. 🌍
