Sorry for the late notice, Claudio Fleiner Secretary Futsal San Jose From info at futsalsj.org Wed Sep 17 22:23:46 2008 From: info at futsalsj.org (Claudio Fleiner (Futsal San Jose)) Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2008 22:23:46 -0700 Subject: [FSJ-Info] Futsal Registration for Winter 2008/2009 is open! Message-ID: <48D1E5E2.8020008@futsalsj.org> Hi everyone! Summer is over, Fall has started and Winter is just around the corner. Its time to plan what your soccer teams are going to do this Winter! If you don't know or remember what Futsal is please read below. The registration information for the next season is now on our webpage: http://www.futsalsj.org/registration_form.shtml For those of you that have played in our league last year please note a few important differences: * due to popular demand U8 will play on a large field with goals and goalkeepers, and referees * U10 and U9 will play on a full sized field and not on the half courts at JCC * Home teams will have to provide game balls, and a time and score keeper for games * Teams will have to record scores on our webpage We still charge the same amount per team though, except for U8, which will have to pay $425 to cover the cost of the fields and referees. This year for the first time we also offer a U6 coed league, playing on a small field, without keepers, as a trial! Our registration form is available here: http://www.futsalsj.org/registration_form.shtml If you have any questions please let me know! Greetings, and see you soon on the court! Claudio Fleiner Secretary Futsal San Jose ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Looking for some fun for your team during the winter season? Then you found the right place! We are starting our third winter season in December. Try the game that Pele and Ronaldo played: Futsal/Five-a-Side. It's the world's official indoor soccer game, played within the existing side and end lines of a basketball court without the need for sidewalls or artificial turf. The term, "Futsal," is derived from the Spanish, "futbol sala," meaning indoor soccer. It also is referred to as indoor five-a-side. In the United States, it originally was referred to as "minisoccer." Futsal is gaining rapid popularity in the U.S. because it adapts so well to existing facilities. For instance, it is now being played in gymnasiums throughout the country by the Boys and Girls Clubs of America. Anywhere you have a basketball gym, from Key West, Fla., to Ketchikan, Alaska, you can play Futsal, and you can play it on outdoor courts, as well. Futsal is one of the world's great skill-developers for youth players. Pele, Zico and Socrates of Brazilian World Cup fame grew up playing the game, and Brazil's recent World Cup stars, Romario and Bebeto, have played it extensively. Ronaldo played it until he was 16. Futsal is an ingeniously condensed version of the outdoor game that preserves the outdoor game's true time and space relationships. The ball-handling speed and skill and quick thinking of Futsal translate directly to the outdoor game - around both goals and in the thick of midfield battle.d ------------------------------------------------------------------ Claudio Fleiner, Secretary, Futsal San Jose, info at futsalsj.org From bruce_yost at yahoo.com Thu Sep 18 20:06:16 2008 From: bruce_yost at yahoo.com (Bruce Yost) Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 20:06:16 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [FSJ-Info] Earthquakes Message-ID: <938321.61727.qm@web31001.mail.mud.yahoo.com> Coaches, The Earthquakes have extended a special offer for game tickets to Futsal San Jose teams for the October 25 game against FC Toronto.
