Benefits of playing Futsal:

Foot skills –During a Futsal game, players will be able to touch the ball close to a hundred times in each half. Their foot skills will develop rapidly: it is a constant passing game spiced up with some individual flair of dribbling skills.

Transition –Given the small number of players and the tight space provided, in Futsal this is more emphasized. Winning and losing possession of the ball will happen quickly; hence changing gears from defense to attack and attack to defense require super fast . Playing proactively rather than just reacting to the game will bring success on the Futsal court, and will transfer over to the soccer field.

Small sided environment – the players will be exposed to numerous 1v1, 1v2, 2v1, 2v2 situations. These are key elements of the game . If a team and its players are not good in 1v1 and 2v2 situations, and if they can not perform efficiently and successfully in those small fragments of the game, then they won't be able to perform successfully on the big field when they play the 11v11 game. It is like a big puzzle that is missing small pieces.

Tactical awareness – being so close to the ball and having the chance to make an impact in the game will present unlimited amount of decision making opportunities to the players. Tactics are decisions. We all can teach kids how to control and turn with the ball, how to chip over the GK, how to pass in short or long range, etc.; but we can not teach decision making. By learning futsal they will not need to rely on us coaches to think for them and be their “mental crutch”. Players don't need the coach “joy-sticking” them from the sideline. Making and carrying out those decisions on their own greatly heightens their development.

Whole body workout - from the mind (visualizing and hearing, information processing and deciding, then quickly acting upon) through the body (movements such as twisting, turning, jumping, running, dribbling, passing, shooting, diving carried out constantly; to the spirit (experiencing excitement, fulfilled with the joy of playing in a non-stop fashion) – the whole person is involved in an intense, challenging and fun experience. . . . There is no comparison!

Expressing one's personality through the game – it is Joga Bonito: Play Beautiful! Speak with your feet, not with your mouth!

Topics to be covered:

  • Dribbling; including creativity, control, solving tight situations
  • Finishing; creative ways to get the ball in the net
  • Passing; striking the ball with a variety of surfaces and the weight of your pass will be introduced
  • Receiving and turning with the ball
  • 1v1 Attacking

Philosophy:

At the very youngest ages, the game of soccer needs to be modified to suit the needs of the players. Players should be given as many touches on the ball as possible in both practice and game situations to develop their individual skills and confidence. Small-sided games for the appropriate age groups will allow this to happen. A young soccer player develops faster playing in an environment that encourages maximum touches on the ball but still reinforces the basic skills. This encourages creativity, risk taking and problem solving skills.
