We are looking to start a new futsal league. Starting in October of 2008.
( Futsal is an indoor version of association football. Its name is derived from the Portuguese futebol de salão and the Spanish fútbol sala/de salón, which can be translated as 'indoor football'.
Futsal is played between two teams of five players, one of whom is the goalkeeper. In addition each team may have 7 substitutes. Unlike some other forms of indoor football, the court is delimited by lines, and not walls or boards that players can use to rebound the ball. Futsal is played with a smaller ball with less bounce than a football.The emphasis is on improvisation, creativity and technique. )
Futsal is a great way to work on your 2-touch game, quickness, domination and overall soccer skills.
The league will be held in a school gym in the toronto area on saturday or maybe sunday afternoons/evenings.
For our first season we are looking between 8-10 teams to join, you may already know about other similar leagues that are out there. However, these are things that will stand out.
1. Even though the league will be an amateur league, we are going to try and treat the players like professionals. This will be done by:
a) having their team pictures on the league website
b) keeping track of team, player, goalie statistics
c) Having a Trophie night to celebrate and give out trophies for Top scorer, best goalie, 1st place team, MVP and others.
d) ID Badge for each player to ensure fairness and orginization
e) an Allstar game
f) player of the week
2. Organization will be our main goal. The members of this league have played in many other leagues that are in it just to take the money and run an OK league. We want this league to be the best league or one of the best leagues out there. How can this be done?
a) Fees will be collected in advanced. You don't pay, you don't play.
b) same rules apply to every team, no exeptions
c) ID must be shown prior to playing the game, no ID, player cannot play
d) Games will start at time stated, not before, not after (5 mins grace period given)
e) Licensed referees will be used.
3. Starting players will be announced during the playoff games.
4. Music will be played between games.
5. Schedule will be provided prior to the league starting, games can be changed, but it must be done by teams. The league will not go around trying to fit every teams need in terms of time of play.
The league will run between October to April/Early May. This will give us around 20 games, plus playoffs.
