[quote=Anonymous][quote=FPYCparent][quote]{Have} you noticed the skill level of your DD and/or her teammates improve after 2 seasons of futsal? I am thinking about having my DD join a futsal team too.[/quote]

To my **untrained** eye, I haven't seen any improvement in my DD that I can directly attribute to futsal alone.  (DD barely looks at a soccer ball at home and would rather sit on the coach watching TV or playing video games.  So, she needs any and all structured soccer "time" to show any kind of improvement.)

After the U9 fall NCSL season, the coach decided to direct lots of energy and practice time into individual foot skills during the winter, potentially sacrificing "whole team" development.  I'm sure that each girl on the team benefitted from that intense focus on foot skills, some more than others.  The team did win the "championships" in each of their futsal seasons, so that gave them some confidence that could be carried over into the subsequent spring.[/quote]

This is a different subject, but if a kid "barely looks at a soccer ball at home" why do you have her in a competitive level of soccer? I feel like there ought to be a passion for soccer in the kids in the higher levels.[/quote]
