Any feedback on In10sity futsal?

They have a certain vibe. The hype the kids up. They are loud. I've seen the coach screaming at the ref to inflict fear, which worked. The players all have a certain attitude when they play, they think they are better than everyone else.

You're anti confidence in youth sports?

There's a difference between confident and cocky...The former backs up projected superiority with results, the latter cannot necessarily do so, or is over confident for no particular reason.

So, like the Cobra Kai of DMV Futsal?

That alone makes the team competitive (the talent pool). The organization and coaches have no clue how to run and evolve a futsal team.

you know nothing. results matter. consistent national/AC champions at different age groups over numerous years.

Come to try outs, they are scheduled for Oct 13th and 20th for Virginia. The space is great, they use it well and you will see the talent and opportunity.

I disagree, they seem to be some of the only coaches in the NoVa who are completely capable of coaching futsal Trust me, I've had 3 years of travel coaches trying to coach futsal as a side winter gig, none of them know what they are doing. They are all faking it and taking your money. This is a futsal pure program, not a league club that just participates in a winter futsal league.

Whatever experience they have is bad and does not translate into good futsal.coahing.

Know some Virginia kids who used to travel to their MD facility because the lack of futsal availability in VA but stopped after a season because it is not worth the ride.

We know kids on intensity teams and they get good results bc many of the those kids are on top teams of the big area clubs (eg, MLSNext/ECNL clubs). They will like be a good team regardless of coaching.

Long time In10sity parent here:

1. Every team in youth sports will have folks pass through who are unhappy with the experience. You can’t be competitive and make everyone happy all the time.

2. Futsal is not soccer. It’s a different sport and many soccer players who are effective in the open field struggle in tight spaces with the ball at their feet. In10sity teams routinely beat all of the big name soccer clubs in the area when they play over the winter months because they play real futsal.

3. In10sity is a meritocracy - nobody gets something they didn’t earn. Kids compete for spots on tournament rosters every week. The trainings are excellent and the environment extremely competitive.

4. The coaches are some of the best my kid has worked with (that includes top level club MLSNext/ECNL, odp, etc..). They are demanding, but never insulting or demeaning. The kids always feel like they have their support and I personally haven’t met one player yet who wouldn’t run through a wall for their coaches. The coaches are passionate not just about the club but about the game and that passion translates into exceptional training. It has nothing to do with what kids are learning at their respective soccer clubs, and everything to do with the attention and experience delivered by the staff.

5. Do yourself a favor and come check out the club and make up your own mind. If you’re looking for a highly competitive environment where the players push each other harder than any coach could, and where your kid can learn to work hard for what they want, this might be a good landing spot.

Do they play offensive/sexualized music and/or music that glorifies violence for the children they are entrusted with?

Those coaches has a pea size brain with ADHA. They would not be able to write more than a few sentences.

They are good coaches - DD loved it. Lots of parents here that fancy themselves Futsol coaches, or are actively trying to start their own Futsol leagues. Don’t listen to the toxic naysayers. They are toxic on every board. In10sity is the most quality Futsol in the area.
