Coaching Tips
Grassroots Futsal - Children
With football being the most common sport played in Primary and Secondary Schools, implementing quality Futsal Programmes in schools will play an integral role in developing a "culture" of Futsal in Ireland going forward.
The largest impact area in establising Futsal will be with the clubs and leagues of the Schoolboys Football Association of Ireland (SFAI). As such, leagues will be encouraged to develop Futsal activity across all age groups with particular emphasis on the important developmental windows associated with the 7 to 10 year old age group.
Further areas of Futsal development will focus on the National Community Games and the expansion of the FAI Inner City Futsal Programme in an effort to broaden awareness of the game in local communities.
