Top 10 benefits of Futsal
Improve your game!
1. The small sized ball improves ball mastery.
2. The low numbers (5 v 5) mean the kids get more touches.
3. The game encourages kids to be more creative in 1v1 situations and utilize fakes to beat their opponent.
4. It's a faster game on a smaller court and that improves decision-making.
5. The low bounce ball is easier to control.
6. The game promotes passing to feet and possession as big kicks and punts will continually put the ball out of bounds.
7. The game is quicker than soccer and the kids become more agile, quicker, stronger and improve their coordination.
8. Youngsters have more opportunities to execute fundamentals such as passing, dribbling, shielding, ball control and shooting.
9. The quick transitions mean that every player on the court is involved in attacking and defending.
10. It's fun and the kids love it!
"Coach Patrick is an outstanding trainer! I have been very impressed with his ability to bring out the best in my daughter. Not only is he a great technical coach, he is extremely knowledgeable and stresses the importance of developing individual skills and techniques in game-related activities. His program is comprehensive. He gives my daughter short, weekly homework to help improve her understanding of the game. He gives us handouts and soccer DVDs to watch. He is very dedicated. He traveled to tryouts and games to see her play and provided feedback on her games. On the personal side, Coach Patrick also took time to getting to know us and is always available for questions and advice. In the period my daughter has been training with Coach Patrick, Iā€™ve noticed significant improvement in her techniques and ball handling/movement. Again, I have been so impressed with his ability to bring out the best in my daughter. "

"About a year and a half ago our then 14-year-old daughter Bethany tried out for a competitive club team and was not chosen. Prior to this, she played AYSO recreational soccer since she was five. We knew she was just a mediocre player, but she loved playing. We decided we would try and find her a personal coach. So, our search led us to Coach Patrick McPhillips. We asked Coach Patrick to help us get Bethany playing at a higher level. He told us frankly that he could do it, but it would take more than just a few sessions. For the last year, she has been training with Coach Patrick for one hour. Not only did he improve her physical skills, but he also improved her knowledge and mentality by giving her weekly homework. I am thrilled to report that Bethany recently tried out for Burlingame Soccer Club and was offered a spot on their competitive team. Success! Not only did Coach Patrick help her become a much better player, he took the time to chat and get to know us and offered us a lot of guidance. He even came out to watch her play in games and practices. His quality of coaching is hands down, top notch. If you want to tap into your childā€™s full potential, Coach Patrick will certainly deliver."
