Seaton Athletics Futsal

We are proud to introduce our newest program addition.

Futsal is the only “Official form of Indoor Soccer” as approved by FIFA.  It is a 5 v 5 small-sided game played on a hard surfaced, basketball sized court with a smaller, heavier low bounce ball. The smaller, heavier futsal ball requires players to hone their ball-striking and ball handling technique and places emphasis on technical skill in restricted spaces that can be transferred over to traditional soccer games as well as improving adaptability, athletic intelligence, speed of play, and creativity.  Great soccer superstars such as Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, and Messi grew up playing the game and credit futsal with developing their skills.

Players will form teams that will follow official futsal rules of small sided 5 v 5 games with substitutions on the fly.  Children will be coached by Aaron Seaton, a USSF National D professional soccer coach, who possesses over 30 years of coaching experience.
