The Winter Futsal Sessions provide a free futsal soccer ball to every player.
The program uses a smaller, heavier ball that supports closer ball control and manipulation, and the smaller confines of the pitch and line markings prevent easy escape from tight situations. The Pro Control Soccer Wall Training System, which is employed by some of the top professional soccer clubs in the world, is used during selected sessions. The Winter Futsal program is described as the fastest game on two feet and includes innovative skills games and techniques.
The Soccer Academy is led by Camp Director David DiTomasso, and Coach DiTomasso is the trainer for the Advanced Technical Skills School class and is described as the Director. The Soccer Academy notes a reputation built over the past 25 years and states that the director is personally involved in every aspect of the Academy to ensure quality. The staff is described as top notch coaches from the Midwest and beyond who understand kids, cognitive development, and safety.
The Soccer Academy states that its camp is always on the cutting edge, with a high tech curriculum and years of research installed into its development. It also states that the reputation built over the past 25 years has proven that it provides the best possible training a player can receive, and that staff members challenge and propel players physically and mentally. The Academy notes that all players will have soccer homework after multiple sessions to keep them engaged.
Parent testimonials describe Winter Futsal training as incredible and say that coaches push players while being great teachers, and that a 9-year-old daughter worked hard every session and had fun. Other parents report that their children made significant progress in staying calm under pressure, using moves to get out of or go past pressure, and that their children now love Futsal or continue to train on their own with a futsal ball. Additional testimonials describe the staff as very professional, mention homework as a great idea, and refer to the camp as a great confidence builder and a very good investment in a youth athlete.
