All players are expected to pay their player fees the first week of practice. This helps the club secure and pay for our facilities and equipment that are used throughout the course of the season.
What is the primary focus of Mean Machine Futsal Club?
We have developed our Winter Futsal program so that the primary focus for our players is the development of not just their skill, but their confidence and leadership. We also emphasize development over winning, to ensure that players continue to grow, throughout all phases of their involvement with our futsal club.
What is your Winter Futsal raffle?
When a player completes the registration process and makes a deposit towards their fees, they are provided with tickets towards the winter Mean Machine Raffle. In this raffle, players are able to keep their money earned through the sale of the tickets, so that they may recoup the cost of playing. This Winter Futsal raffle drawing takes place in January and will have a grand prize to be determined by the Mean Machine Sports Board of Directors. Further information is released, following the start of the season. Players, parents, fans and volunteers are all eligible to win various prizes. The drawing is completed live on Facebook, so that there are no concerns of any bias with the outcome of the drawing.
*If a player is sponsored by a local business, they will not receive any raffle tickets, as the business receives the benefits of their sponsorship, through awards and other various aspects throughout the season.
Do you have scholarships available for players, based on their income?
We are working on obtaining funds to offer scholarships and more information will be provided at a later time, indicating the qualifications and how parents can apply for a scholarship for their player(s).
Mean Machine Financial Assistance Information
I would like to volunteer for the Mean Machine!
We love to have people step up and volunteer, if you are interested in assisting in any capacity, please feel free to reach out to Coach Cooper at (740) 274-9126. Various positions do have strict requirements and all volunteers must be approved through the Board of Directors. During our Winter Competitive Futsal season, we allow one parent to help out and "learn to coach," per division. Once the parents learn Mean Machine "Way," they will receive increased responsibility with their given team/division. These parent/coaches will be matched with an experienced Mean Machine Head Coach, that will assist in teaching them about the club and our goals. We do have other opportunities for parents to volunteer, through our "Parent Club." Additional information on this is provided during the season.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to reach out to
