IF I AM ALREADY TRAINING WITH MY CLUB/TOWN TEAM, WHY WOULD I PAY EXTRA FOR FUTSAL?
New York Fuysal’s Training and Academy programs are designed to complement, not compete with, a player’s club soccer training. We place a heavy focus on player development aimed at improving technical ability and their game awareness/tactical decision making while club/town teams tend to stress formations and style of play. New York Futsal’s League is a great way for your school/club team (or you can sign-up as a “free agent”) to play small sided, competitive games on a fast pace court surface with no walls which will better enhance individual player development and decision making with and without the ball.

WHAT ABOUT RECRUITING?
New York Futsal is committed to maintaining its independence and objectivity with the sole objective of improving player development; we are NOT a club . Although we utilize the support and cooperation of soccer coaches from many neighboring soccer programs, we have a strict “no recruiting policy.” Soccer players from one club can rest assured that they will never be pressured to join other clubs in the course of playing futsal with our program. In addition, our independence and objectivity are reflected in the fact that we provide equal, unbiased selection process to all players in our Academy “open tryout”.

HOW MUCH WILL IT ALL COST?
League: $1600 team, $250 a player [recreation] plus $15 dollar registration with US Youth Soccer Training: $50 a session=$450-10 sessions

DO PLAYER’S HAVE TO TRY-OUT AND IF SO, WHAT IS THE REQUIRED/EXPECTED LEVEL?
New York Futsal is open for any/all players, you do not have to try-out to participate. The only try-out is for our Academy and that is open for players of all abilities. We run pre-Season Clinic to determine levels.Regardless of the program(s) chosen, New York Futsal prides itself on placing players in the best training and game environment that will help challenge and enhance their development.
