LYS Fall Classes Open for Registration!
LYS Fall Classes are now open for registration! We have a great lineup and we hope to see your player in class soon! Please see below for class information and registration links:
LYS Sunrise Skills & Strength (FREE PROGRAM!)
Sunrise Skills and Strength is tailored for motivated LYS Developmental and Competitive players with an intrinsic desire to develop their soccer skills. Class will take place Monday-Friday via Zoom from 7:00-7:20am. Classes will begin on 9/2 and run throughout the school year.
These morning sessions with Coach Anthony provide morning motivation for our players and support them in building a positive mindset to carry throughout their day. Not only is it great training, but this program is teaching our players amazing life skills that will allow them to be successful in any endeavor. Getting up early on a daily basis to work towards something takes serious dedication and commitment.
Last year, players who participated since the beginning of the program got over 30 additional hours of training during the year and exponentially more touches on the ball. Incredible for players looking to take their game to the next level!
We believe in this program so much that we make this program FREE for all Developmental and Competitive LYS players. We hope we see everyone sign up for the program!!
Players will need at least a 6’x6′ space with a ball and cones.
LYS Fall Futsal
A favorite class here at LYS! Led by LYS coaching staff, this program is designed to get players more touches on the ball and to learn to strike the ball cleaner and harder. We will focus on many striking techniques, as well as playing games that will allow us to practice real game-like situations!
The structure of the futsal game makes it an incredible tool to quickly develop the skills required for soccer – balance, agility, coordination, ball mastery, decision-making, passing, etc. Here are some of the reasons why we love it!
– Futsal creates quick, technical players due to the small format game. Players get about 600% more touches on the ball than a regular format soccer game!
– Futsal requires players to be quick on their feet and focus on passing and dribbling. The smaller, weighted ball requires players to focus on passing and receiving at higher speeds.
– Futsal provides a fast-paced game that encourages players to be creative and fosters their decision-making skills.
We will be offering 3 different futsal sessions this Summer:
- Developmental Futsal: Fridays from 4:30-5:20pm (open to players with 2018 – 2016 birth years)
- Intermediate Futsal: Fridays from 5:30-6:30pm (open to players with 2016 – 2014 birth years)
- Advanced Futsal: Fridays from 7:30-8:20pm (open to players with 2014 birth years and older)
Classes are open to LYS & Neighborhood Rec Club players that are registered for the 25-26 season. Classes will take place from 9/12 to 11/7. There will be no class on 10/31.
