[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try futsal. Fast paced, lots of 1v1 opportunities in a short period of time, forces you to be technical.[/quote]

Agree with playing futsal.  I'm a big fan. 
 It has massive benefits for younger players say, under 14 which are the prime development years in terms of ball skill acquisition.  After that, the game is more tactical because the players are bigger and the court becomes smaller because the players just take up more space. It is also more physical and more dangerous as the kids get older and the risks start to outweigh the benefits because of the surface alone.  Futsal is a fundamentally different game than soccer.  Different skills.  Futsal is heavily sole of the foot reliant.  Whereas soccer is not.  You don't have time to do a lot of the key futsal moves in soccer.  Why a lot of really good futsal players struggle on the field and vice versa.  Bottom line...no futsal scholarships or big money in futsal last time I checked. It has its uses for development for sure and that is undeniable.  Confidence on the ball and decision making in tight space are the main benefits in addition to high touch rates in low amounts of time.  But, you need a futsal coach that understands transferable skills to soccer and how to teach them. Very few of them in our area. [/quote]
Then why not just play indoor soccer instead of futsal? [/quote]
