FCS Futures - Summer 2026

Summer 2026 - Open registration

What is FCS Futures? --- FCS Futures is the Youth league of the Futsal Champions Series

What is the purpose of FCS Futures? ---FCS Futures' goal is to provide a clear futsal development pathway from U10 all the way up to the highest level of futsal in the country in the FCS both on the boys and Girls side.

How is the FCS Futures Summer Session structured? --- The FCS Futures league consists of 6 divisions: U10, U12, U14, and U16 on both the boys and girls side. Each division will have 10 full court training sessions on Monday evenings (1 Saturday, June 13) from June 1- August 1, a monthly 1v1 tournament (total of 3) on our small court, with a 4 team tournament during the season. 

Where will the tournament and training sessions for Lansing City FCS Futures be played? --- The Lansing City Arena 

When will the tournaments be played? --- The tournaments will be held on different Saturdays during the summer based on Age group.

Will the FCS Futures Summer Tournaments be broadcasted on FCS Live --- The tournament championship games will be broadcast on FCS Live. 

What is the difference between FCS Futures Summer and the Winter Session? - there are many similarities, the biggest difference is the shorter season and just playing in the one tournament. We will continue to build on skills learned in the previous winter session as well as prepare for the upcoming Winter season. Additionally, some of the USL2 soccer players who have played futsal overseas will be helping with the summer session while they are in Lansing for the summer. 

What if my child has never played futsal before and wants to try it before we commit (returning players are welcome too!)?  

We are hosting two 1- hour training sessions (free of charge) that your child can join on May 23. 

• U10/U12 Boys and Girls from 1pm-2pm
• U14/U16 Boys and Girls from 2pm-3pm

What makes the FCS Futures different than other youth futsal leagues and tournaments?--- FCS Futures is the first connected futsal pathway to the highest level of futsal available in the United States, the FCS men's and women's leagues. FCS futures is the first league with mandated requirements on court sizes. No more tiny postage stamp futsal courts that degrade the game. FCS Futures games are also all stopped clock, which means the games are official FIFA Futsal length and format. These two changes make a huge difference in the way the game is experienced.
