Futsal

Our Winter Futsal session is coming to an end.  We had a good turnout and would like to see the program continue. Coach O would like to offer the program to the U10, U12 and U15 soccer players. If there is enough interest, we would like to run the in-house Futsal program on Wednesday evenings starting in April.  Please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested!  E-mail Chester Recreation at director@chesternhrec.org.

For those who are not familiar with Futsal.  It’s a game played between two teams of five players each, one of whom is the goalkeeper. Unlimited substitutions are permitted. Unlike some other forms of indoor football, the game is played on a hard court surface delimited by lines; walls or boards are not used. Futsal is also played with a smaller ball with less bounce than a regular football due to the surface of the field. The surface, ball and rules create an emphasis on improvisation, creativity and technique as well as ball control and passing in small spaces.
