Indoor Soccer season is in full swing and just wondering how everyone is doing. Why doesn't OYSA run a league? Seems to be very popular with boys, not so much girls.

Why would you want a single inept organization running all leagues? -

Indoor soccer is for little kids and adults. It’s a dying activityComment

Indoor soccer is fun, but it's a different game. As preparation/practice for outdoor soccer, futsal is probably better than hockey-with-a-soccer-ball. As a game on its own merits, indoor soccer is fine, and if you like playing it, more power to you!Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

It's actually growing and popular with adults, all of the areas Indoor Centers are filled to capacity with waiting lists for teams to get in, the supply of 12 indoor fields is quite robust and the demand to play is greater than the supply of fields. Kids teams also fill the arenas through the weekdays and weekends. If that indicates it's dying as an activity you need your head examined. More adults play indoor soccer than ever before. What bad habits are you referring too, exercise, teamwork, social gathering, friendships and enjoyment.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post

Who says anyone wants them. Just wondering why they don't. League = money. Sherwood and Tualatin have teams from every club in the region. Hundreds of teams, thousands of players.
Only issue is the lack of organization and ability to get equal leagues and games. Sometimes you end up in a league with some people that are literally just there for fun and you might not get a competitive games.
Indoor doesn't teach anything bad....it's a different and unique game. It's like saying playing basketball hurts your soccer game.Comment

You just described nearly all levels of HS Soccer in Oregon + the collegiate realities across the.nation in the outdoor activity. This is called the current operating norm. If soccer appealed to a broader audience of USA participants then these realities could be possibly mitigated. For the time being it is, what it is, my friend.Comment

Some of the most Ignorant sideline observers (aka coaches) haven't realized playing Futsal can help you get better at Futsal and actually worse at outdoor & indoor soccer.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
Here is an outcome of playing futsal related to outdoor and indoor soccer:
Specifically the issue with the weighted ball. Far too often I feel as if the heavier ball lends better touches to poorer technique. It masks bad first touches and mitigates their detriment on the game.
What happens to the same player who returns to playing the outdoor game in the spring and can’t keep hold of the ball when they receive it?

Typically these type end up playing full time with the Futsal facility teams and become the heart of the game. LOL.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
