The place to discuss how to coach and play the great game of futsal.
In case you were wondering what Futsal is, it is the format of Small Sided Football that is recognised and supported by FIFA and UEFA with World and European Championships for club and National Teams
The name 'Futsal' simply combines the Spanish words for ‘Hall’ – Sala and ‘Football’ – Futbol into Futsal. It is a five-a-side game, played with hockey sized goals and a smaller ball with a reduced bounce.
As a small-sided game players are constantly placed in situations where they must receive or play whilst under pressure or in confined spaces and it places considerable demand on technique, movement, tactical awareness and fitness.
As such, it is a great game for improving children's ball skills, vision, speed and confidence.
