Sporting Club Network, presented by Price Chopper, is excited to announce that our long-time partner United States Youth Futsal (USYF) will be launching the Fountain City Futsal Academy (FCFA). FCFA is the first futsal academy sanctioned by USYF in Kansas City, which is home to the largest USYF league in the nation and hosts the USYF Regional and National Championships.
FCFA is a premier futsal development program that offers players a unique opportunity to train and compete with players form other soccer clubs that are at the same skill-level. The program is designed to complement, not compete with a player’s regular soccer training with their own clubs.
Players will receive 60 futsal training sessions per year from a specialized futsal coaching staff.
“This is an exciting new era in KC for youth soccer! Fountain City Futsal Academy will provide players futsal training throughout the year. Players will learn the techniques and tactics of the game which will complement their outdoor soccer development. This will allow them to follow the same pathway of some of world’s greatest soccer players.”
