TOURNAMENTS

April 20, 2024

Turnaments play an important role in the rythym of play of our teams.  Ideally, it is an opportunity to play teams outside the league.

We are deliberate about the tournaments we send teams to.  We pick ones that are well-run (and have good parking) with a good reputation of creating fair brackets of teams with similar skills.  Ideally, giving each team an opportunity to win.  Our goal is to put teams in divisions of the tournament where they will be competitive.  My view is that it’s better to win 2 and lose 1 than have 3 teams that are easy to beat.  Unfortunately, some teams or clubs see tournament as an easy chance to collect a trophy by applying to lower division than they should be in.  The result of pretty lobsided scores.  We’ve seen 20-1 and 12-0 scoresl out teams on the losing end.  Our teams didn’t have any fun playing retreive the ball from the goal and the other team certainly didn’t get anything useful out of the game.

SOCCER EXPENSES

April 28, 2024

FC Storm kicks off the fall season with its annual club-wide Preseason Camp August 2nd to the 6th.

Many of our teams will be working with Coerver Coaches and their internationally recognized training methods for building foundational ball skills. Once again, we are fortunate to have Scott Hutchinson and Sam Fiore leading the Coerver portion of the camp – both played at Xavier University under Charlie Cook, Coerver Co-Founder. Other teams will be training with their coaches.

The week is designed to focus on fundamental player and team skill development.

Check with your coaches or TeamSnap for your teams’ schedule.

GO STORM FC!!!
