[quote=Anonymous]This is a completely accurate assessment.  
[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does everyone get to play on different teams. It seems like they mix ages and teams.[/quote]

No they don’t mix. We are looking at other futsal clubs and having my child leave the program. I think coaches should practice what they preach on Instagram.[/quote]

I also agree.  A typical False8 session: (A parent's perspective)

40-50 kids arrive.  
Warm Ups.
-Demonstrations are completed by the same kids over and over, the IG kids.
IG Kids are put into 1 or 2 groups.  
Everyone else is split into other groups.
Kids do all the circuits. 
They film the IG kids for a post that day.
Your kid is left keeping up with the other kids.
Concluding session and motivational speech by 1 Coach. 
-End result: 10 kids feel like they belong, 40 kids are just grinding away doing sloppy reps wondering why they signed up.

Some pros: The fitness is high level, lots of touches, motivational speech at the end
Big areas to improve: Newer kids might feel invisible, the secondary coaches (station coaches) just keep the kids moving, its so much hustle for little kids, some might not want to come back, parents who are juiced in/ bulldozer parents who talk to the instructors before hand seem to have their kid featured more, this is a Type A dog-eat-dog training program

Personally, we Love/ Hate it. My kid doesn't want to go unless they have a good friend going too. And it takes a bit to convince other parents to send their kids as they have a negative rep for the older kids & families (that is why they primarily only have little kids attend (u8-u10). We just do the random sessions and are not on the Futsal program.
