Futsal
From Brazil to the Desso Hall…it’s five-a-side with a smaller and heavier ball, requiring skill, creativity and showboating aplenty! Uw5 has pioneered a futsal scheme this season, run by our newly-appointed Futsal Co-ordinator, Lewis Spiers, in conjunction with Michael Skubala, an FA-qualified coach who plays futsal for England. We have offered uw5 members four futsal taster sessions throughout the year in the Desso Hall, each providing the opportunity to play football in its purest form via practising different techniques and then putting these newly developed skills into some matches. All sessions were open to all of our members of all abilities – including those who have never played futsal before. We are also running a Futsal Tournament during Sports Week! We are discussing future strategy, with a view to creating a separate Futsal Club and BUCS team in the coming years.
