[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Snowflake, PP is demonstrating frustration at parents who just follow the crowd like sheep. Futsal is a serious sport and PP is only stating that must clubs don't have a serious futsal development program but only use the name to grab your dollars. [/quote]

What's a money grab? And why should most clubs have a serious futsal development program?  Kids sign up to play outdoor soccer. Futsal hasn't caught on as it's own individual sport, but most of us do see the benefits in futsal for speed of play, number of touches, number of 1v1 situations, number of 2v2 situations, technical skill development, etc.  So most clubs do futsal training in the winter because it's frickin cold outside.  Sure it's not truly futsal development but it is technically futsal as you play on a futsal court, with a futsal ball, and follow futsal rules.  Of course, most kids aren't learning butterfly patterns and different rotations, but why should they?  They play 5v5 indoor soccer on a court with a limited bounce ball.  There are still alot of benefits to this.  The coaches still need to be paid, the courts need to be rented, futsal balls need to be bought, and futsal leagues have fees, so, yes, it costs money. Now if your club over charges you for this, that's your fault.[/quote]
