About the Fustal program

What is futsal?

Futsal is a high intensity, fast paced, dynamic, non-violent and enjoyable 5-a-side version of soccer that caters for both male and female participants. It is the only 5-a-side version of football officially recognised by FIFA, and is one of the fastest growing sports in the world.

Futsal is played on a smaller, hard-court surface and usually indoors, making it the perfect sport for all weather conditions.

Activities

Your child will be individually assessed and placed with players of a similar age and skill level. They will take part in drills, one-on-one simulations, small-sided games and common conditioning activities specific to soccer.

When the ref's final whistle blows, kids will walk off court with:

improved crucial game skills including:
- kicking
- passing
- dribbling
- shooting (penalties and simulated game)
greater game awareness and strategy such as:
- attacking and defending skills
- formations
- one-on-one play
- side-throws
- corner kicks
- heading
- blocking
- shooting.
