PLAY THE GAME THAT DEVELOPED THE WORLD'S BEST PLAYERS
Futsal is widely known by the smartest educators as the best skill development game for children. At it's best, players show flair, skill, courage, intelligence and vision.
It is the game Pele, Ronaldhino, Ronaldo and Robinho played as young children. In fact, all Brazilian's play small field games with fewer players until age 14.
In attack, the idea of this game is to encourage a more creative, skilful player and to use space well.
In defence, heavy tackling is strongly discouraged. Defenders are encouraged to jockey, steal & intercept to dispossess attackers.
All players must learn to attack and defend, pass & move.
It is the game where children learn how 2 can beat 1, and 3 can beat 2. Players learn how to pass and move effectively.
It is a very fast game with loads of passing and ball touches for all players. There are plenty of goals scored.
Our referees are directed to encourage the fun, skill & flair of soccer.
Come and join the fun...
