Philosophy
Athletic Futsal equips players to grow and mature as players to reach their aspirations on and off the field. AF prizes excellence in training that is personal, structured, and comprehensive. The AF edge provides specific skill plans based on needs and aims of players. The structured approach minimizes down-time to make for action-packed sessions. The comprehensive nature focuses on technical skill work and tactical dynamics of the sport. Our unique value leverages the fact that futsal is a vehicle for present growth at one’s particular stage, while also preparing one for life down the road.
Our Values
Love
Soccer and futsal are universal languages. The most important part of the game is that players can find a love for the game. Love does not always means it will be easy, but it is always worth the journey.
Patience
Taking time to work on one’s craft is a commitment for playing the long game, rather than taking a short cut. Patience is the the ability to see player development from a different time-line.
Humility
There will always be an opportunity to grow and there will always be a higher level to play, and a higher accomplishment to achieve. Humility acknowledges that I will work with what I’m given, and appreciate those who are experienced and have devoted time to their craft.
Freedom
Each player has a unique gifting and a unique foot-print with the ball. Working on and maximizing your strengths makes you good, developing your weaknesses makes you great.
Hope
Visionary’s set their gaze beyond what is seen in the here, to what can be seen in the then. Seeing the game as a launchpad into the future to come brings one to a place of no return.
Discipline
Cultivating practices that are sustainable calls for habit formation. Discipline holds you accountable to the established goals and shapes you into a resilient character that can weather any storm.
Player Praise
“
The drills have been helpful and easy to learn. They have helped me nail the things I have been good at and learn the things that I am not.
