| The City is in the process of creating an indoor (covered) soccer league that will focus on finesse.
We will be having a pick-up game tomorrow (Thursday, September 2nd, 2010) at Westwinds Activity Center in the old George Air Force Base. The actual address is 18040 George Blvd., Victorville, CA 92392. This is the smaller of the 2 gym buildings.
Women (over 30) are invited for 6pm - 7pm
Men (also over 30) are invited for 7pm - 8pm
The thought is to initially start an Over 30s league for the women, and perhaps bump the men to Over 35s (however, on the men's league, you would be able to have 2 players between the age of 30 and 35). We will also be forming a coed league.
Here are the finer points of this indoor league:
The indoor game is faster than the outdoor game, leading to quicker thinking. Players seem to improve their ball control, short passes, quickly moving into space, and taking shots at goal. The conditioning of players is definitely enhanced by the indoor game as well.
The court is pretty small, so we will be playing just 5 vs 5 which includes the goalkeeper!
Come and check it out - whether it be as a participant or as a spectator.
