Winter indoor training is an important component of the Skyline Elite player development program. The opportunity to play during the winter months maintains development continuity. The unique demands of the indoor soccer environment challenges players to develop a more complete skill set. Due to the tight spaces, indoor play helps players sharpen technical skills while increasing speed of play and decision-making.
Participation in the SOCA Winter Indoor Soccer League (WISL) futsal program is included in team registration fees. The WISL futsal league operates for approximately seven weeks in January and February and takes place at the state-of-the-art Belvedere Field House. Players will play with their teammates against appropriate competition in the low-key league format. Winter futsal provides development continuity through a low-pressure, yet fast paced and enjoyable activity.
Skyline Elite players will have access to advanced Winter Academy programs operated by SOCA. Winter Academy programs are optional, but encouraged for players seeking to supplement the WISL futsal league play. Winter Academies are six week long technical development programs, emphasizing the acquisition and application of technical skills in an appropriately demanding training environment. Skills and soccer intelligence are emphasized to solve game problems. Academies meet once per week in January and February.
