Dental Depot Partners with Invicto Futsal Academy to Support Oklahoma Youth Athletes
Dental Depot is proud to announce a new partnership with Invicto Futsal Academy as the academy’s first-ever official jersey sponsor for the 2025–2026 winter futsal season. The sponsorship reflects a shared commitment to investing in Oklahoma’s youth by supporting programs that foster confidence, teamwork, discipline, and personal growth.
As a family-owned dental practice with deep roots in Oklahoma communities, Dental Depot believes youth sports play an important role in helping young people develop skills that extend far beyond competition. Through this partnership, Dental Depot is helping expand awareness of futsal while supporting opportunities for young athletes throughout the Oklahoma City area.
A Shared Commitment to Developing Young People
Invicto Futsal Academy was founded by Kit Stephenson and Garrett Dresel with a mission to provide elite futsal training while emphasizing character development, leadership, and teamwork. Through its relationship with Santos FC, the world’s top-ranked futsal club, Invicto incorporates internationally respected coaching methodologies that help players sharpen technical skills, decision-making abilities, and game awareness.
“Partnering with Dental Depot is a natural next step for our academy because their commitment to caring for people aligns with our values,” said Stephenson. “We are grateful for their support and excited about what this partnership means for our players and families.”
The academy’s coaches believe futsal provides a unique environment for athletes to build confidence, creativity, and discipline while developing skills that translate to success both on and off the court.
Why Futsal Matters for Youth Development
Futsal is a fast-paced indoor variation of soccer played on a smaller court with fewer players. The game encourages frequent ball touches, quick decision-making, and teamwork, making it a valuable developmental tool for athletes of all ages and skill levels.
Many of the world’s top soccer players credit futsal as a foundational part of their athletic development. The sport’s emphasis on technical ability and problem-solving helps young athletes become more complete players while building valuable life skills such as perseverance, accountability, and communication.
Invicto’s leadership has seen firsthand how these experiences can shape future opportunities. Former academy player Cam Little, now a professional kicker for the Jacksonville Jaguars, serves as one example of how dedication, discipline, and athletic development can open doors at the highest levels of competition.
Dental Depot’s Ongoing Commitment to Oklahoma Communities
Dental Depot has long supported local schools, youth programs, nonprofit organizations, and community events across Oklahoma. The partnership with Invicto Futsal Academy continues that tradition by helping create positive opportunities for young athletes and their families.
“The more we learned about Invicto’s coaching philosophy and commitment to developing young people, the more we knew this partnership was a perfect fit,” said April Sharry, Vice President of Marketing for Dental Depot. “We are excited to support their athletes and help introduce more families to the game of futsal.”
By investing in organizations that prioritize personal growth alongside athletic achievement, Dental Depot remains committed to helping Oklahoma communities thrive.
Looking Ahead to the 2025–2026 Season
As Invicto Futsal Academy prepares for another competitive season, Dental Depot is honored to support the athletes, coaches, and families who make the program possible. Together, the organizations share a vision of helping young people build confidence, develop leadership skills, and pursue their goals both in sports and in life.
Dental Depot looks forward to cheering on Invicto’s players throughout the season and celebrating their continued success on and off the court.
