“With the Strikers Futsal Academy program, we strive to link principles of our soccer methodology to the futsal court. While futsal and soccer are in fact 2 different games, there are common space-time characteristics that help connect the two,” Will Bates, Director of Futsal, said about the new program. “We are excited about the opportunity to provide a consistent message to our players and to be able to influence those involved 40-50 more times a year!”
Programming for Strikers Futsal Academy teams will begin in the Summer of 2019.
