Futsal

“During my childhood in Portugal, all we played was futsal. The small playing area helped me improve my close control, and whenever I played futsal I felt free. If it wasn't for futsal, I wouldn't be the player I am today."
Cristiano Ronaldo

Futsal is an exciting, fast-paced small sided football game that originates from South America in the 1930s. It is widely played across the world, and is the small sided football format that is officially recognised by both UEFA and FIFA. The nature of the game places a large emphasis on technical skill and ability in situations of high pressure, and is subsequently an excellent breeding ground for football competencies that can be translated into the 11-a-side format of the game.  Many of the world's greatest stars all played and enjoyed futsal: Pele, Zico, Ronaldinho, Kaka,  Messi,  Ronaldo, Iniesta, Xavi to name just a few!

Our children and young people play futsal in the winter months. Our futsal session are open to all children who attend the club.
