FC ALIANZA TRAINING METHODOLOGY
TECHNICAL
TECHNICAL
TECHNICAL
Futsal technique is critical to playing with more efficiency on the futsal court. Repetition develops confidence on the ball. Using different surfaces of your feet adds value to a player's technical toolbox.
Our coaches are former outdoor soccer players with futsal playing experience. This is imperative to understand the translation between the two games to best compliment a player's technical development and maximize their abilities on both surfaces.
TACTICAL
TECHNICAL
TECHNICAL
Individual as well as collective tactics continuously challenge players in a futsal environment. Players experience multiple tactical scenarios during the course of a match provoking opportunities to make quicker more creative decisions. In transition a players absorbtion of attacking and defending principles is accelerated. It is in these specific details that make the difference on the outdoor pitch.
During the course of our 12 week winter program coaches will systematically progress teams through this process.
"When I was a young boy in Argentina, I played futsal in the street and in a club. It was great fun and helped me become the player I am today."
