Kip McDaniel
A native of Champaign, IL, Kip’s passion for soccer began at a young age while playing for Little Illini Soccer Club. Excelling in the sport through adolescence, he had a successful high school career with Champaign Central as the team captain, starting sweeper and achieving All-Conference and All-Area Player of the Year awards.
In college, he was the team captain and starting sweeper for Illinois State University and the Assistant Head Coach of the Denver Kickers in Colorado. Returning to Illinois, Kip went back to his roots and coached multiple Little Illini Soccer Club teams including U11, U14 and U17 - with some of those athletes moving on to professional careers. He most recently coached the girls soccer team at The High School of St. Thomas More.
Kip’s approach to the game begins with a positive mindset. As an athlete, he appreciates quality technique and strives to have fun every time he’s on the field.
Kip now resides in Monticello with his wife and son.
