BENEFITS OF FUTSAL

What makes futsal different to football, and why does it help develop world-class footballers?

THE SURFACE: On a hardcourt surface, the ball moves quicker and increases the speed of play. In a faster game, thinking time is reduced, and your speed of thought improves.

THE BALL: The ball has less bounce and keeps the ball on the ground more. This increases the touches of the ball.

THE SIZE OF THE COURT: A smaller playing area means less time on the ball and requires players to be technically better.

THE RULES: The rules of futsal help create a fast and exciting game. 5v5 increases 1v1 duals, and players are required to be able to play under pressure from their opponent.

TACTICAL AWARENESS: Futsal is far more tactical than people think. Players, although they have favoured positions, are not pigeonholed in a set position, and all players have a responsibility to attack and defend. Futsal is a game of high intensity with constant attacking/defending and transitions. The game challenges players TECHNICALLY, TACTICALLY, PHYSICALLY, and MENTALLY.

We learn through REPITITION, and in futsal, players are on the ball more, have more decisions to make, have more duals, more attacking/defending, more shots at goal, more saves and importantly, make more mistakes.

When you read the benefits, it's no coincidence that all those in the picture played futsal on their journey to the highest level of football.

Why not give futsal a try for your child or team?

Registration for the Futsal Escocia Youth Winter Leagues will be open soon.
