Indoor Soccer Schedules – No Saturday Pickup Soccer in 4th Quarter

Dear OTA Soccer Parents,

Below are Futsal schedules for our two youngest teams (Note: the 11-14 Year-Old Team always plays at 3:55 PM).  Please remember, players should wear:

  • regular tennis shoes or indoor soccer shoes (no cleats, we play on a wooden basketball floor)
  • shin guards
  • gray OTA PE uniform shirt (bring a purple shirt as a backup!) and purple shorts

Games are at the Municipal Gym, 2111 Pan American Plaza, the gym is the building located to the left of the air and space museum.

Also please note: since most players will be at Balboa park on Saturdays we’ve cancelled Saturday pickup soccer for 4th Quarter.

Indoor Soccer Parents Meeting this Saturday – Join the OTA Futsal Team!

Good Morning OTA Soccer Parents!
We are looking forward to the futsal league beginning this Saturday. OTA teams have a bye this first Saturday and I would like to have a brief meeting with all the OTA parents this Saturday at 3:15 pm at the Municipal Gym where the games are held. The address is 2111 Pan American Plaza, the gym is the building located next to the air and space museum.
At the meeting I will review the game schedule and I have a futsal parent handbook I will pass out that explains the league and how futsal is played. We can also talk about setting up a practice schedule and who will be coaching. This meeting will give parents a chance to see where the games are held, learn about how the game is played and give them a chance to register and pay if they have not already done so.
Thanks, Karleen
Soccer Kids America
Since OTA teams have a bye the first week you may still register your child–call me at 858-581-9116 to do so!
