Emlyn Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I didn't know this was happening but I think it's awesome! http://canadasoccer.com/news/viewArtical.asp?Press_ID=4541 I think it's about time Canada got on board with the rest of the world on one of the best games for skill development there is. In the book "the Talent Code" author Daniel Coyle attributes much of Brazilian players' skill to playing futsal when they were young. http://thetalentcode.com/book/ Not to mention it is played indoors which is great because one can play in the winter. does anyone have any more information on this? is there talk of setting up youth or adult leagues?

Macksam Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 This is what the CSL should play during the winter months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuscan Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I'm surprised the CSL hasn't looked into joining up with the Futsal league that is trying to get going in Toronto (Jamie, can you shed some light on how things with your buddie's futsal league are going?) as there is so much potential once people realize the benefits of futsal over regular indoor boarded soccer.

dpetzz Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 CSA recently held an referee instructors course to teach instructors about futsal. Apparently there will be a push to have a national list of officials for futsal so I guess that is an indication that leagues are wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure "Jamie's buddy" is "futsal" on this board, and is in the picture in that link. He'll probably notice this thread and update soon.
