◆What you'll need from yourself

High energy and a quick tempo — futsal sessions move fast. Keep the ball rolling, minimise queues, and keep every player active.

!Common problems

Players reverting to football habits (letting the ball run, using the inside of the foot for everything). Keep reinforcing sole control and the quick, tight futsal style.
