Winter Futsal
The B.E.A.R.S (Berkeley, El Cerrito, Albany, Richmond, San Pablo) Winter Futsal Program is open to all players interested in competitive futsal. This program is for competitive players born between 2010 and 2014. Players from all local competitive soccer clubs are invited to attend tryouts and join B.E.A.R.S Futsal teams. Please note, this is not a NorCal Soccer event, so the tryout window rules do not apply. However, all players must return to their original clubs once the B.E.A.R.S season ends.
The B.E.A.R.S Competitive Futsal Program will form multiple teams, each competing in various local futsal leagues from December through February, such as COPA and Diablo Valley Futsal Leagues.
Teams will train twice a week under professional coaching and participate in one weekly physical performance training session.
