Sports & Recreation
Our Recreation Department offers a wide variety of individual and team sports, as well as instructional classes for children, youth mental, emotional and social development in a competitive setting. Good sportsmanship and safety are always emphasized!
Futsal / Indoor Soccer
Futsal is a small-sided soccer game( typically 5 v 5) on a hard surface about the size of a basketball court. Futsal uses a modified ball that has less bounce than a typical soccer ball and small goals to match the size of the pitch. This format allows for a fun, fast-paced game full of creativity and improvisation for all abilities.
Our very own Ben Tiner will be running the Futsal / Indoor Soccer programs! Ben has been playing soccer his entire life and has been coaching for over 10 years. Ben currently coaches for the Richmond Kickers and actively plays on a premier team in the Central Virginia Soccer Association league, where he also serves on the board.
