Tryout FAQs

Can my athlete play for OLé if they already play for a local soccer club?
Absolutely. Most OLé players also play outdoor soccer for top clubs across West Michigan. Our futsal season complements—not competes with—traditional soccer schedules.

When is the OLé Futsal Season?
Our main season runs from November through the last weekend of February, with optional training and tournaments throughout the year, including summer futsal camps and travel events.

How are teams formed?
Teams are formed based on tryout performance, technical ability, commitment level, and positional needs. Age groupings follow US Soccer.

How many teams are formed per birth year?
We typically form 2 teams per age group, depending on interest and the overall talent pool.

Where are practices held?
Practice location will be at OLé's home facility, Limitless Arena.

How often do teams train?
Most teams train 2 times per week, with weekend games or tournaments.

Is futsal good for soccer development?
Yes! Futsal develops quick decision-making, tight ball control, and technical footwork—skills that translate directly to the outdoor game and elevate overall performance.

What if my child has never played futsal before?
No problem. Many of our players are new to futsal when they join. Our coaches are experts at developing players quickly in a fun, high-energy environment.
