Futsal is Coming to The Sports Connexion - Make sure your part if this excisting new game - Regsiter your interest now

 

Futsal is an exciting, fast-paced small sided football game that is widely played across the world and 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. The reduced bounce ball leads to a more controlled, less physical, fun way to enjoy indoor football.  

Many of the top world class footballers played Futsal in their youth and credit it with supporting their footballing development; players of the calibre of Pele, Zico, Ronaldinho, Kaka, Lionel Messi to name but a few of the South American legends all played and enjoyed Futsal.  But Futsal has not just helped produce South American football stars, on the European stage Cristiano Ronaldo, Deco, Xavi, Fabregas amongst many others have played Futsal to develop their skills.

"Futsal was important in helping to develop my ball control, quick thinking, passing….also for dribbling, balance, concentration…. Futsal was very, very important, no doubt."- Pele, World Cup Winner: 1958, 1962 & 1970

Futsal is a five-a-side game, normally played on a flat indoor pitch with hockey sized goals and a size 4 ball with a reduced bounce.  It is played to touchlines and all players are free to enter the penalty area and play the ball over head-height. 

 

The Sports Connexion, the pioneers of small sided league football in Warwickshire and one of the original operators in the UK since the 1980's have collaborated with the F.A. to be the first affiliated provider of Futsal in the Coventry area.

 

Since the conception of the England Futsal Team in 2004 players have realised their ambition to play indoor football for their country… now is your chance… fancy playing in the Futsal F.I.F.A. World Cup?

 

Futsal will operate at The Sports Connexion alongside our respected 4-a-side leagues for adults, juniors, over 30's and ladies.
