The Long Island Rough Riders have announced their 2009/10 indoor training programs to be held at the Globall Sports Centers located at the Mitchel Athletic Complex in Uniondale and the Cunningham Sports Center in Fresh Meadows, Queens.
Training programs at both facilities will commence in October with an initial three-week course. Concurrent eight-week classes will follow until the spring of 2010.
"The Rough Riders training programs are the best way to help a player improve their skills and become confident handling the ball," said Rough Riders Director of Coaching John Diffley.

- BALL MASTERY: Fast footwork / 1st Touch, Control & Passing / One vs. One
- FUTSAL SERIES: Futsal 101 / Futsal Footwork / Futsal Tactics
- GOALKEEPER SERIES: Goalkeeper 101 / Goalkeeper Intermediate / Advanced
- OPERATION KICK START: New for players 4 to 7 years old
- PERSONAL INSTRUCTION: New private professional training sessions
- STRIKER SERIES: Goal Scoring 101 / Finishing School / Finishing School Advanced
In addition to the instruction classes above, Globall Sports has also included multi-sport courses catered specifically to soccer and lacrosse players. A complete detailed outline of all Rough Riders and Globall training courses can be found at www.globallsportscenters.com.
