The YMCA is excited to offer a recreational outdoor futsal program designed to give players extra experience and alternative to traditional soccer. YMCA collaborated with Lego and the US Soccer Foundation to bring the first outdoor Mini-Pitch court to New Mexico!
Futsal is a variation of soccer played on a smaller pitch. The game is widely played across the world and is recognized by FIFA and other major organizations.
This fast-paced game provides unique opportunities for players to develop in precision, decision making, ball control and skillful, creative play. Smaller team sizes result in a much better all-around understanding of the game, as well as more touches on the ball.
The program will develop dribbling, passing, and finishing techniques while instilling confidence necessary to succeed.
The regular season league is a 10-week program, guaranteeing 10 practices and 8 games.
