FUTSAL Season is Here

Nortac is excited to bring you another session of Futsal.  Register here.  The cost is FREE and is a great opportunity for your player(s) to hone some skills, learn new ones, start thinking about fall Rec soccer, Sparta tryouts and while having a great time.  Please feel free to pass this email along to anyone who would be interested in participating.  And as always, we are in constant need for volunteers to staff the sessions.

Please contact Ed Pereira with any questions - email

Futsal is a fast-paced, five vs. five, soccer game played both indoors and out. Futsal is played on basketball-sized courts with no sidewalls. Futsal develops skill by demanding quick reflexes, fast thinking and pin-point passing. It is played with a special low-bounce ball necessitating players to use their skills, rather than the ball's bounce to propel it. Futsal is a great training device for the soccer player at any skill level.

Cost: FREE

Location: St. Patrick School Gym, 1112 N. G St. 

Teams: Drop-in format - New teams will be created each session.

Dates:  Sundays; March 30th, April 6th, 13th, 27th and May 4th

Re:  2013 Uniforms

Starting for the 2013 season, Nortac Soccer Club has made several changes to the uniform.

• The double sided jersey will not be used.  Instead a red Adidas Estro jersey will be the main jersey.  This is a single sided jersey.  A double sided jersey  will still be used for the Micro league (ages 4-5)
• Teams U-12 and above will not be provided a jersey as part of the registration fee.  Those teams are now responsible to provide their own jerseys
• In partnership with Sparta and soccer.com, ordering for the jerseys (U-12 and above) as well as partial uniform kits or full kits can be purchased through soccer.com
• The only required uniform item on the website is the jersey.  Purchase of other uniform items are at the discretion of each individual team
• The prices we have secured are very reasonable and have made it very convenient for teams to order uniform items and accessories
