Kristina & Nash from futsal.

“As a parent and a coach, I have watched my two boys evolve through futsal.  The pace of the futsal is much faster than soccer which when combined with a smaller field and fewer players results in more touches and better decision making.  As a survey club soccer matches each weekend, it is easy for me to pick out the kids that are playing futsal.  They are better dribblers, superior passers, more accurate shooters, calm under pressure, and the only ones with their heads up with the ball.  Futsal itself requires greater creativity than soccer as kids have to work in much tighter spaces and must use all parts of body as well as both their feet.  While there are opportunities to advance in the sport of futsal, I see its greatest contribution as providing the tools and skills necessary to make complete soccer players.  Futsal is an absolute must for aspiring soccer players ages 5-14.”
