The festival will feature tournaments for teams at all age groups and will emphasise fun and involvement for all in this introduction to futsal.

From this event, players may be selected to represent Middlesbrough in national tournaments planned for the end of August against other national league clubs and you'll also be able to find out about future events and tournaments.

Entry to the tournament is £30 per team and squads of 6-8 are recommended for the 5-a-side game. Individuals are also welcome to come along for a 1 hour coaching session with Middlesbrough first team player Mikey Roberts, which will take place during the event. Everybody, teams or individuals must register on BoroFutsal.com or email play@borofutsal.co.uk for more information.

Futsal is the game played by most Brazilian and Spanish children and promotes playing in tight spaces and being creative 1 on 1. Something that English football is crying out for.
