How Winter Training Works​
For 9U-19U players, the Indy Eleven North Winter Training Program offers 15 weeks of training, November 10 – March 12. See the training days and times in the table below. Our 9U-12U players will play futsal and train on a hard surface in Elkhart. Our 13U and older players will play on turf in Mishawaka. Each session is coached by professionally licensed, paid staff.
​​
There are no tryouts and no players will be turned away. We have multiple teams for each age group and can find a suitable level team for your player.
​
There will also be opportunities to participate in league play (subject to an additional charge).

How to Register​
The cost for the 15-week program is $85. Boys and girls are in separate groups. You will be notified prior to the start of the winter season to confirm your scheduling time and location. We will evaluate all players at the start of winter and move players, as needed, to the most appropriate training group.​​

Why Futsal?
Futsal is an exciting, fast-paced small-sided soccer game played on a hard surface. All 12U and younger players will play futsal.
Futsal provides an ideal training environment for developing technically sound and tactically sharp soccer players. The nature of the game places an emphasis on skill and composure in situations of tight space and high pressure. In futsal, the ball moves faster, players touch the ball more, and they are constantly having to control the ball under pressure. This is why futsal is such an important building block in soccer player development.
