[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] I know I'll get flack on this but I wouldn't even bother with futsal with a rec kid unless he/she is a top rec kid improving and really, really wanting to improve. As many people have said, you play futsal, you need to have a very good first touch, footskill, and basically all the technical skills or the ball is constantly out of play and the game sucks. For the average rec player, I would do basketball. : )

Yeah, I have to disagree.  My son is a travel player, and a more serious futsal player than soccer player (he does futsal training during the soccer season).  But what is wrong with a rec league with opponents that are equally not as invested?  It is a way for kids to get out of the house, off electronics, and get some exercise?  My son's best friend is very short and does Alexandria's rec futsal league - he has zero interest in basketball, for obvious reasons[/quote]

Now close your eyes and envision this game with your son's best friend playing....how often is that ball just rolling out of bounds?  Every other touch probably.  All I'm saying is that I would pass on that.  Maybe find an indoor league with walls.  To me there is a certain level of technical skills that need to be met before you join onto a futsal team/league. Otherwise, the games are just a waste. Again, in my opinion and something for rec parents to think about.[/quote]
