FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
North East England Junior Futsal Festival
Middlesbrough Futsal Club is calling for youngsters to take part in the North East England Junior Futsal Festival. Organised as part of the “Passionate People, Passionate Places” campaign, the tournament will kick start Boro’s involvement with the campaign aimed at raising the area’s profile.
Futsal is the 5-a-side indoor game that is recognised and supported by FIFA and UEFA and helped to hone the talents of legends such as Juninho, Ronaldo and Pele. Now Middlesbrough Futsal Club is inviting teams to take part in a tournament for the chance to showboat their futsal skills and support the North East England campaign.
Event organiser Damon Shaw is calling for Junior teams from football clubs, schools, organisations or other youth groups to enter. “No previous futsal experience is necessary, as this tournament will serve to introduce the fast, skilful game to over 100 children. It’s been part of our plan since we began, to get futsal into the community and this tournament will see the start our commitment to developing junior futsal in the area, ready for 2008.”
“Children starting out now at a young age will be the future of English Futsal, which is a long way off the levels we see in Europe. This tournament will not only show the youngsters what futsal is, but Middlesbrough Futsal Club will be on the lookout for talented players to make up the Under 16s for the coming season, so get your friends, team mates and classmates together and enter a team as soon as possible!”
The tournament takes place on Sunday, 6th January 10am – 6pm, in the Olympia Sports Hall at the University of Teesside. All participants will receive a goody bag with a skills DVD, badges and more. There are lots of prizes up for grabs through the day too including VIP tickets to Boro’s 1st birthday bash on 23rd February!
