Individual Futsal Recreation Registration

For recreational players who would like to play futsal but don't have a team, SMYS will offer individual registration.  Registration is $75 per player, but an online registration fee.  There is no practice for futsal, just weekly games starting at the end of November.

Players will be assigned to teams that will play in the recreational division and will play all games in St. Mary's County at either St. Mary's College or King's Christian Academy.

To register as an INDIVIDUAL PLAYER, please CLICK HERE!

If you have a team that you'd like to register, please visit the TriCounty Futsal website to register as a team.

All players should bring the following to each session:

  • Size 3 regular soccer ball
  • Tennis shoes or indoor soccer shoes (no cleats)
  • Shinguards
  • Water (no sugary drinks inside the gym)

The Winter Indoor Clinic Series is designed to help younger players improve technical skills during the cold weather months.  Each 50-minutes session will emphasize:

  • First touch
  • Striking the ball
  • Introduction to passing and shooting

If you have any questions, please email Coach Steve Senna for information.

Important Information Contained in Winter Indoor Clinic Time-Slot Confirmation Emails Sent to Parents of All Participants:

Important Information about the Winter Indoor Clinics to help make them a success..., and we will need your help and cooperation (it will take a village to succeed with the little ones as they need a lot of attention)...

What to bring to every clinic session:

  • Size 3 regular soccer ball
  • Tennis shoes or indoor soccer shoes (no cleats)
  • Shin guards
  • Water ONLY (no sugary drinks inside the gym)
All Sessions Start and End ON TIME:
 
 
Please arrive a little early. We have a to work on a very strict time-table as we have 3 (back to back to back) sessions and will have lots of little ones coming and going.
This is why the clinic is 50 minutes in length so we can clear the gymnasium and get the next group going on time. We need your assistance in that (thank you).

Absences:

There is no need to email us if your son or daughter cannot attend a clinic session.
We hope they can make them all, but we understand that children get sick sometimes during the winter months and at times your family may have another conflict that will prevent their attending every clinic – no worries...

Coaches to Assist... Want to help???:

All 50 minute clinic(s) have (24-26) children assigned to it. Lisa and I (when I’m there) will need some parents to assist us on the court to help herd the young ones and oversee the futsal style small-sided matches during the final 25 minutes of the clinic.
Would you like to help? Please email me directly and let me know. email Coach Steve Senna

NO T-Shirts for the Winter Clinic Series:

One frequently asked question from last year is “when do we get our t-shirts” or “why don’t we have t-shirts”.
The club does not provide t-shirts for the clinic. We have to pay a very high rental fee to use the KCA gymnasium per hour, this eliminates funds available to purchase t-shirts.
This is a “come as you are” clinic. Let your children wear their own soccer attire, shirts, etc. We will have pinnies available for when we play small-sided futsal during the final 25 minutes of the clinic.

What is our focus/objectives during the clinic?:

1. For your children to have FUN and foster a LOVE for the sport (futsal/soccer).
2. For your children to learn how to be comfortable with a soccer ball at their feet.
3. For your children to learn how to adjust to the speed of the ball on the basketball floor surface
    (it’s MUCH different that playing in the grass).
4. For your children to interact socially with other children and adults in a sporting environment (social growth).
5. For your children to be more confident with a soccer ball when the clinic series comes to an end.
 
If you have questions on anything not explained in this email, please feel free to email me.
Thank you for registering your son or daughter for the Winter Indoor Clinic Series!


Some Important Winter Indoor Clinic/Registration Notes:

1. The only option when entering the registration portal is “U7” clinic. This encompasses ALL U5’s, U6’s and U7’s.
2. The registrar will separate children by their true age group (as best as possible) after the registration process is complete, or when the clinic if full to capacity (whichever comes first).
3. In a case where more children of one age group are registered, SMYS may move some players to a time slot that is not their true age group in order to even numbers for a more effective clinic. You will be notified of the time slot assigned prior to the first clinic on December 1, 2012.
4. Unlike the SMYS outdoor recreational program, you will not be assigned a “team coach”, so you will not receive an email from a “team coach”. Simply show up at Kings Christian Academy (KCA) at your assigned time for the clinic. Please be sure your children have a size 3 ball, shin guards, appropriate indoor shoes and water at every clinic.
5. The Winter Indoor Clinics are managed by the SMYS Director of Coaching (Steve Senna) who may or may not be present at every clinic. When possible, Steve will be present and run clinics with additional qualified coaches. In his absence, qualified coaches will be present to run all clinics.
