Futsal Revival Thread

[Steve C]

Ive started regularly refereeing futsal and its great!

My tutor was english FIFA Futsal Referee Marc Birkett and I did the course at St Georges Park on an FA Programme for people my age.

Level 5 Futsal Referee now which is good, might end up trying to make it further to be honest!

Any of you tried it, playing or reffing it? Any questions you may have ill try to answer too!

I did the course and began refereeing Futsal. Unfortunately I found it was similar to 5 a side where commercial considerations of the hosting centre outweighed the control and management of the players. In addition, at the particular centre I worked at, they seemed to have little concept of closed dates, scheduling my sessions when I had other football commitments. In the end I told the centre not to bother giving me more games.
