HOME PAGE OF MINNESOTA FUTSAL

THE FINEST FACILITIES AND THE BEST, MOST BALANCED FUTSAL COMPETITION IN MINNESOTA! 

We are THE ONLY futsal league in the Twin Cities sanctioned by United States Youth Futsal and affiliated with United States Soccer. We employ only US Soccer futsal certified referees for our games. The Minnesota Futsal League is the only league that provides 2 referees for U16 and older teams. We think it is critical that the older age groups have 2 experienced officials to call the game properly.

If your club team isn't playing in Minnesota Futsal this winter, no problem.  We can help!  Click the link below to register your player.  We will work with the futsal community to either add you to an existing team or partner you up with other players also looking for a squad.  Invite a couple friends or teammates and we can make the process even easier.  While we can't guarantee placement, we'll do our best to make sure each person can play the beautiful game this winter.

2023-2024 TC Sala Academy and Development Centers

TC Sala Development Centers are the foundation of TC Sala and support training environments all around the metro.  Each Development Center will include 1.5 hour training sessions for kids that are looking to further develop their futsal skills. Sessions will focus on individual development and include best-practice training techniques used with our USYF National Teams. Whether your focus is making the USYF National Team or just improving your overall game, this is a great opportunity to learn from some of the top futsal instructors in the area. All sessions will be led by current United States Youth Futsal National Coaching Staff member Brian Catrine, 'The Maestro' Fernando Jimenez, UNW Head Coach and USYF Minnesota ID Staff member Greg Wheaton, USYF Minnesota ID Staff member Aaron Lindquist, or former United States Mens National Futsal Team Captain and current USYF National Coaching Staff member Todd Dusosky.

We are extremely excited to have such a talented coaching staff and look forward to developing the future of futsal in Minnesota!

USYF now requires all staff members, registered coaches, and team managers take the U.S. Center for SafeSport.org online course link which covers sexual abuse, hazing, bullying, emotional and physical misconduct, and the new, mandated by law reporting obligations.

The online training is free for USYF coaches and staff and the national background checks cost $10.00. Working together, we will provide the safest environment and raise the standards for futsal in America."

In addition, there is a jurisdictional search of the court records of the more than 3,347 counties in the USA for felonies and misdemeanors as well as criminal traffic offenses.  FBI, Interpol and other databases are also searched.
