MISSION OF FUTSAL COLORADO

To provide the ultimate off season small sided game environment for youth soccer players to continue to develop and enhance their technical skills and tactical understanding of the game. Futsal Colorado provides the opportunity for players and coaches to compete in the only version of indoor soccer sanctioned by FIFA, the US Soccer Federation and all major soccer federations around the world.

Futsal Colorado is a strong advocate of:

• Focusing on skill development and creative play.
• Utilizing US Soccer certified referees who understand the spirit and art of the game.
• Matching teams of similar skill in appropriate divisions and age groups.

WHY PLAY FUTSAL?

Before committing your team to an indoor league we encourage you to consider why Futsal is the best option for your players' development.

1. Futsal is played on a field with boundary lines just like an outdoor soccer field. The skills developed during the futsal season are immediately and directly transferable to the outdoor game.

2. Futsal requires accurate passing and shooting at all times. The tight spaces, smaller goals, heavier and smaller ball - these are all proven factors that contribute to the faster technical development of soccer players.

3. Futsal accelerates the learning process of maintaining possession in tight spaces. Effectively shielding the ball and being comfortable with the ball when under pressure differentiates players who play futsal from the ones who do not.

4. Futsal teaches players to be intelligent and creative in their movement on the field, and to time their runs to perfection (a critical element to play soccer at the highest level).

5. Futsal requires every player to be constantly involved in the game both offensively and defensively. The Speed of Transition is a key factor for success in soccer, and this is constantly reinforced during a futsal game.

6. Futsal requires coordinated player movements at all times. This lays the foundation for increasingly more complex tactical play in the outdoor game.

7. Futsal is safer and more fun!

Your team has the opportunity to take full advantage of all these developmental benefits of futsal.

Futsal Colorado, an affiliate of US Youth Futsal is a US Soccer sanctioned futsal league. The Denver South Winter League will be held at an easily accessible facility - The Gold Crown Field House, (150 S. Harlan St, Lakewood) conveniently located within a 30 minute drive for the majority of teams in the South Denver metro area.

We highly encourage participation by teams from as many different clubs as possible to ensure the highest level of competition. The ultimate objective of Futsal Colorado is to help elevate the skill level of the Colorado youth soccer player. We believe that during the development years every touch of the ball matters, and that futsal is the ideal small sided game to provide the quality touches required for a positive and deliberate practice experience.

Futsal Colorado's Denver South Winter League features boys and girls teams in every age group from U8 through High School. High-quality officiating, fair and balanced competition, superior facilities and outstanding service are the hallmark of the league; ensuring coaches, players and parents return to play in our league year after year.
