FA qualified coaches deliver sessions that incorporate practices and games that have developmental benefits from improved first touch through to advanced ball mastery. Also embedded throughout the different levels of the programme is a progressive understanding of the rules and tactical aspects of Futsal.
Sheffield & Hallamshire FA Coaches will work with club coaches/teachers to involve them in session delivery and develop their understanding on coaching and officiating Futsal (if required).
Futsal is the ultimate 5-a-side experience and is the only small-sided version of the game recognised by FIFA. Futsal is widely credited for developing the skills of many world class footballers including Ronaldinho, Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and many more.
