| Are they still sending out offers for the teams? |
Yes, I am well they make videos/clips of literally every second someone in a False 8 jersey is doing anything related to a soccer ball. What I don't know nor care enough to look is whether they post you tube videos of entire games they lose. I have seen False 8 play. They're fine. Christian seems to know what he's doing although more so with regard to soccer training than futsal. What I'm unclear about is the cult like obsession amongst the insta-fame hungry parents. Its frankly weird and borderline creepy. |
| Did anyone even get an offer that wasn’t already on a team |
In the past, maybe not the case anymore, they advertise as hybrid futsal. FOMO is a real problem and insta taps into that. He has capitalized but that doesn’t mean is service is bad or wrong. We like is as a compliment to when practice is cancelled for bad weather. But I wouldn’t replace private training with it. For futsal, if your club has a weak program then why not do it, there aren’t a lot of options around. |
But that’s kind of the issue; more programs = diluted player pool. But futsal really is just FOMO for u9-u12 |
Yes but, kids are basically in a false 8 pool and only some get invited to play in tournaments. It is kind of genius what he did but unfortunate for the kids that think they are making tourneys but wont make the A team cut |
You really believe futsal is FOMO instead one of the most effective tools available to a young baller? |
You really believe futsal is FOMO instead one of the most effective tools available to a young baller? Do you really even care about your 9 or 10yo if you’re not crapping on cost-effective training opportunities instead of just shelling out a few hundred on personal training. Group training is for poor people and future D3 players, it is known. |
Damn. So even if you are invited to False8 futsal you may never play a game? |

CR is trolling DCUM
to quote: Question for youth soccer parents: If a club without MLS, ECNL or GA status: - trained 4-5x a week (u9-u19) - Played in solid international tournaments 2-3x per year - Competed in a strong regional league Offered more player development would you consider it? |
that’s my understanding |
| What other club neutral futsal options are out there? Not sure my kid's club is doing it this winter. We are not part of the Instagram/FOMO crowd. |
False8Futsal Story on IG: “Working on Futsal ID invites still we have 1-2 days more until we are finished” Translation: I don’t like what I have seen so far and we need to find others. Parents, get off DCUM and get to work in the backyard with your child. He is just not that into you. |
Find Your Finesse In10sity Fury Futsal (@BSC facility) District Dynamo I believe Arlington and Alexandria bring in outside players for their futsal programs but not sure. |
These plus FC Roma up in MOCO and DCFA (Denis Cabral?) in MD. Sporting Maryland used to run a good program but I think now it is mostly top team MD United players highly encouraged by their coaches to play bc he runs the program (ie scared of retribution if they do not) |
