NEW
Since the start of the academic year, in September, the Little
Sports Coaching Team have been very busy.
We have opened a number of new centres which have proved
to be extremely successful and our new Tots FC programme, targeting 18 month to 5 year olds, has been very popular in the centres we have been running it.
Behind the scenes we’ve been working extremely hard to
create some fantastic new partnerships which will benefit all concerned. We have linked up with Play Factore, based in Trafford, which will see our partner schools given the opportunity to utilise the fabulous facilities as well as Play Factore supporting our junior football team, FC Sports.
At Hotel Football, opening this December directly opposite
Manchester United’s Old Trafford Stadium, we will providing them with coaching support for their various events, including birthday parties and corporate events on their 3G pitch situated on the roof of the hotel!
Once again, On-Side is packed full of news, information and not
to be missed opportunities. We received very positive feedback from the first edition and we hope we have listened and made changes to improve the magazine. Happy Reading!

What is Futsal? Futsal is a fast flowing game with a growing reputation. The ball is slightly smaller than a normal football and is heavier so it is weighted to the ground. It is aimed to improve your first touch and skills. Its a great way to learn new tricks so you can show off in front of your friends. World class Futsal teams in Brazil, Spain, Argentina and Portugal are popular with players like Ronaldo, Messi, Kaka and Fabregas who have developed their football by playing Futsal.

In this country we are still a long way behind in terms of the technical development of young players. Futsal has been accredited for being a tool to aid this development. By having less players on the pitch, playing on smaller pitches, the players will get more touches, create more one versus one situations and therefore develop as better technical players.
In many foreign countries, these formats of the game are played to a much older age which means they are, generally speaking, developing the skills and techniques to make them better players for a longer period of time. Hence why so many people rave about the technique of foreign players when compared to their British counter-parts.
Traditionally, the larger, physical players within our game, have always flourished. Because they can kick further, run faster and further. The new formats of the game, as we are introducing, even things up. Those smaller players, with quick feet and clever minds are now coming to the forefront and that is a positive thing for the development of the game in this country. We’ve still got a long way to go, but we are getting there slowly but surely.
