The Alexandria staff continually promoting itself on these boards is getting nauseating.

My son's team had a team with Alexandria last year with a coach and practices. I don't know how we found out about it...one of the dad's set it up. I don't see it advertised this year on the Alexandria website. I'm going to ask Alexandria about it.

I think you are reading into that incorrectly
Seems he/she is just pointing out the information is out there, readily available and was communicated.
I can't find that particular information, so if anyone can help, I'd prefer to circle back to that.

What Alexandria offers is well communicated. it was heavily published last year and even this year. Id suggest you take a closer look at the emails that come out from the club on the topic. A recent one had an attachment that went into great detail about the program, state of Alex Futsal, team options, coach options and so on. The website covers this as well.
I'm not sure why you are becoming aggressive with me about this.
In fact, I have looked through all the information that ASA sent and posted, and see nothing about practice sessions for non-futsal ID teams, just games. If this information is so easy to find, perhaps you would care to share a link? I'm not interested in getting into a ridiculous argument with you, but rather, getting information about what is available to my child.

Last season Alexandria offered a program where a team could be formed and get an Alexandria coach not just for the Alexandria league games but for 1-2 practices a week. Not sure if they will offer that this year.
That would be awesome. We would have loved that option last year, but it wasn't communicated to us. Maybe a disconnect or missed information. We did have an Alexandria coach (ours from soccer) but no practices.

If your son is not looking for being coached, you might consider forming your own team and getting into the Alexandria league, although that league will be outdoors this year.
The other issue is that if you do this, unless you somehow make arrangements for your own practices, it will be games only.
