Note: We will not be offering Winter Futsal Training for January/February 2021 due to COVID-19.
Winter Futsal Training
Description: Winter training for grade 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 and 7/8 players looking to be challenged in a positive, performance-based, player-centric technical training environment. Includes ten weekly sessions run by New England Revolution Academy coaches focusing on technical and tactical skills development in both activities and small-sided games (e.g. ball mastery, improvisation, dribbling, passing, receiving, attacking, defending and finishing). Sessions are co-ed and will strive to balance the development levels of all players.
Benefits: More touches on the ball for players results in improved skills and more decisions. More decisions result in more chances for learning and development leading to improved confidence and comfort with/without the ball. Improved confidence results in less stress, more success and more fun!
Day: Saturday mornings
Time Slots: Grade 1/2/3/4, 9:00 AM – 10:15 AM; Grade 5/6/7/8, 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM.

Required: Players should wear a t-shirt, shorts, soccer socks, shin-guards, and non-marking indoor soccer shoes or sneakers, and should bring water. HYSA will provide balls.
Format: US Youth Soccer Play-Practice-Play. Begin each session with 5 – 10 minutes of players playing small-sided scrimmages then transition the players to practicing the weekly topic. Finish each session with 15 – 20 minutes of small-sided games focusing on the weekly topic.
Goals: Provide developmentally-appropriate activities for the different grade groups and player development levels within each group. Challenge the players to succeed but make each session fun and engaging so the players will want to learn and develop and return each week. Provide detailed technical and tactical coaching points for players to learn the fundamentals of dribbling, receiving, kicking (passing and shooting), attacking, defending and transitioning.
Topics: fitness, dribbling, soccer moves, receiving, passing, shooting, attacking, defending, transitioning, moving off the ball.
