NEW for 2014!  Huntsville FC will provide a more traditional recreational environment similar to your local park or AYSO program.  We will mix the best components of local recreational soccer with the supervision of our professional staff and directors of coaching.  Please see the informational flyer for more details.

The season will open in mid-August and conclude in late October.  Full schedule and season details will be available soon.

HFC offers soccer programs close to home!  We operate our Huntsville program from the Merrimack Soccer Complex and our Madison operation from Palmer Park.   Due to logistics - the details of each program vary in scheduling, while maintaining the same level of professional instruction and curriculum.

Both programs will have a U6 and U8 program. 

Thank you for your interest in Huntsville Futbol Club.  Our registration for U8 is open all year.  We are always welcoming new kids to our program.

HFC offers well-established structure of a club, the most advanced and successful curriculum in the area, and the right leadership to provide the parents of our players the best value for their investment in soccer education.

Goals/Objectives
Jr Academy Youth Training System goal is to prepare youth players to competitive soccer. At the developmental age group, the focus is to establish a strong technical base, develop athleticism/coordination, teamwork and sportsmanship.
  The ultimate goal for Jr. Academy player is to develop a love for the game.  With the love of the game comes a passion for skill acquisition.  Training will be structured in a way that maximizes each player’s development, through individual instruction and multiple small-sided game situations. YTS players will compete in appropriate game scenarios throughout the available developmental period. 

Curriculum/Plan
The age-appropriate curriculum follows the US Soccer Best Practices and NSCAA curriculum, and is designed to develop technical skills that can be used in tactical situations. Players are trained in pools and as teams to allow maximum exposure to all the coaches and age group players within the system. Detailed curriculums are available for viewing.

Four-Pillars

  • Technical: Individual skill and the fundamentals of dribbling, passing, and shooting are stressed at every session.

  • Tactical: At age appropriate times, players are to understand they are part of team and how to respond to the game within small groups on the field.

  • Physical: All fitness is with the ball.

  • Psychological: Through an enthusiastic and participating coach, players will learn a love for the game of soccer.

Cost/Value
The Jr. Academy is a subsidized Huntsville Futbol Club program through the Club’s fundraising efforts. The goal is to keep the fees as low as possible to make developing a love for soccer and a good fundamental training by certified and licensed coaches available to everyone interested in soccer.

Practices/Games/Tournaments

Limited travel is introduced around 8-9 years of age for the most advanced players. By 10 years of age, players are travelling within a small radius for increased matches and tournament schedules.
