Who Should Be the Canadian Futsal Team Coach.

copy and paste the above link , it will lead you to the Canadian National Futsal Team Coach application forms

The Canadian Soccer Association is in the process of selection it's futsal coaching staff for the upcoming Concacaf qualifying berth for the 2016 Futsal World Cup In Colombia.

Since there is no national futsal league in Canada , it is a difficult task for the Canadian Soccer Association futsal committee chaired by Charlie Cuzzetto .

There are a few people in Canada with futsal knowledge of the game played on court .
From West Coast with 25 years futsal playing experience Dwayne George - Pe School Teacher , He is coaching futsal at the Cowichan Tribes for past 18 years . He played futsal for Cowichan Eagle . Dwayne has a long history in futsal since it's stardom in Canada - a dozen of international games under his belt , which includes, world cup in Italy and Australia . There is more Futsal players at the Cowichan Tribes been one of them Alec Johnnie - perhaps one one of the best futsal player produced in Canadian futsal History - Alec scored goals against Brazil and Paraguay - I do no know no that has done that -

Brazilian born Geraldo Ferrari would be my pick , Ferrari played futsal in Brazil and coached futsal in Montreal and has been involved with soccer in Nova Scotia.

Also I would have the Colombian born Jaime Meza as an assistant coach .

Jaime played good level of futsal back in his old country - Colombia Futsal and has been involved in the development of futsal in Saskatchewan and in Canada.

Kris Fernandes is one of the drive force of the continuing development of futsal in Canada , and should be considered for a position with the Canadian National Futsal Team along with Marcelo (Minhoca) Zuge as coaching advisor - of course there are other applicants that are learning about the game of futsal , but are eager to take on the job.

It is crucial that we have experienced futsal coaching staff to represent Canada in such a high profile event .

There are other names to consider, but, Geraldo Ferrari has the futsal knowledge, expertise , experience, and leadership required to conduct an elite Canadian Futsal Team.

I know that there are good soccer/futsal players to form a Canadian Futsal Team to qualify Canada in the Concacaf region and represent well our country in Colombia.

Futsal Coaches Jaime Meza and Geraldo Ferrari during a Canadian Futsal Coaching Clinic 2014 - in Ontario - Coach Ferrari addressed futsal clinic for new coaches based on the Brazilian school method of futsal

I love to win ! My last winning was at the Estado de Santa Catarina, Brazil - Beach Soccer Championships 2012 with the Embraed Beach Soccer Team

Nothing but gold and the game MVP.

If you wanna be a coach , you got to show what it takes , it is not just have a coaching ticket from a couple weekend coaching clinic , you got to get a few lost and winning games during the apprenticeship before be considered to coach a top elite team .

You can not bring a futsal to play on grass or synthetic grass. Soccer coaches should not run soccer practice on hard surface with a soccer ball , that is due to injuries and insurance liability .

According to sources , It appears that CSA has a name picked from Canada , someone that speaks French /Spanish and English

Futsal' pioneer back in Nanaimo
by
Nanaimo Daily News Sports Writer Ross Armour

I am proud to have brought Futsal from Brazil to Canada in 1978 as well as be part of the history of Futsal Canada as the founder and developer of the game during three decades , have coached the first Canadian Futsal National Team representing Canada at the first appearance at a world cup of futsal held in Spain 1985

Futsal got going back east of Canada, Bob Luft as pioneer in the City of London , Saint Thomas and periphery . I recall that Bob Luft Called me requesting more information on the game of futsal as well as the rules of the game and soccer ball - I sent him a couple futsal ball .

Led by Bob Luft Futsal started in Ontario

Bob Luft sent me these picture way back in the late 80's

Futsal has been around for more than three decades in Canada , mostly of the players were from organized soccer clubs in their region of play

Canada Futsal first appearance at the Brazilian Grand Prix 2007 led by Goalkeeper Roy Blanche the only Canadian on that team that is still continuing the development of futsal in Canada in the Toronto City area , as well as , Roy Blanche played and coached professional futsal in Asia.
Based on his dedication, experience and knowledge in futsal , Roy Blanche should be highly considered to be the Coach of the Canadian National Futsal Team , "or my assistant ! , so he can pick up some futsal tips from the master" !

futsal Canada grassroots in 1980

Who scored the First goal for Canada in a Futsal World Cup ?

Joe Cuzzetto scored the first goal for Canada in a Canadian Futsal in a world Cup , that was at the 1985 Spain Futsal World Cup - the goal was against the Spanish team on the World Cup opening game . " the ball passed through the Spanish goalkeeper legs Cuzzetto can brag about it for the rest of his life - because, that goal was a beauty and I was the coach . Canada was a newcomer and the only team under two digites against on the score board. I consider that a winning result and a great experience as the game was in its first stage of development in Canada. " to be more considered , I believe to be the first Brazilian to coach futsal to a foreign country at a futsal world cup .

The 1985 Spain Futsal World Cup was not under FIFA umbrella , so what ! It was the best futsal in the world and Brazil beat Spain in the Final game in Madrid - The event led the game to be part of FIFA and be part of Soccer Canada . I hope that sports writers get this straight and not try to change the history of Futsal Canada

Bottom Pic. in Memory of Dominic Mobilio

Victor Montagliani now Soccer Canada President played futsal on the first professional soccer league in Canada organized by Carlos Mateus in the Great Vancouver and Vancouver island of British Columbia '

Vancouver 86ers Futsal team champions of the 1st professional futsal league held in British Columbia by Futsal Canada - Carl Valentine, Dominico Mobilio, Dan Lenarduzzi. Steve Nash .. were some of the team players . Charlie Cuzzetto team manager . Victor Montagliani ( top L) went from Futsal Player to President of Soccer Canada .

The legue game final was played at the The University of Vancouver Island - former Malaspina college . the game was televised by Shaw Cable - Ian Thorpe did the play by play and Les Malbon the commentator in the game that that went on the history of Futsal Canada .

That was the first battle that brought together futsal in Canada .

I would like to cote that "the 1989 Fifa World Cup played in Holland , the Canadian Futsal team led by Paul Dolan under the 3 meter pipes , was made up with veteran soccer players - kind off picked up team with Bob Lenarduzzi that never played organized futsal before" There was an invitation from Fifa organizer to Soccer Canada to represent under CSA and not Futsal Canada. Since

Argentina declined to move to FIFA, therefore, Argentina team was also made up with veterans and amateur soccer players with no futsal competition experience.

- History has this things and the "wanna be" trying to get free ink . But. I am glad that - Les Jones contact me in Brazil to collaborate in his book with the true history of Futsal in Canada .

I am Back in Canada after ten years in Brazil researching the Game of futsal . My finding is that the Brazilians have mastered the game of futsal and that is due to the grassroots programs .

In 1985, after five years developing futsal in Canada, primarily in Nanaimo and Vancouver Island, we received from Fifusa, an invitation to participate at the Second World Futsal Championships in Spain.We realize that, it was an opportunity to spread futsal in the mainland and across Canada.The Vancouver Italian Canadian Soccer team was in Nanaimo playing in the Pacific Coast Semi-Pro Soccer league. Watching the game, Leo Beier and I, spotted some gifted soccer players. Talking to the Vancouver Team Manager Charlie Cuzzetto, we went over details about futsal in Canada, and from that we arranged a meeting with the Vancouver players.Charlie and tthe Vancouver players, never saw a futsal ball or new the rules of the game, I explained about futsal and the event in Spain.

Without government funding, we formed a team, Charlie Cuzzetto
did the manager duties, fundraising, booking gym time for training, and travel arrangement.

Due to working commitment, Canadian Futsal Team Head Coach Ike Mackay did not go to Spain. Carlos Mateus shared his coaching knowledge with the players, as well as made many trips on the Vancouver Island Ferry Boat. We had to pay for the travel air tickets, to represent Canada in the Second World Futsal Cup in Spain. The Brazilian sporting manufacturer Penalty sponsored the uniforms, and the Spanish Futsal Association paid for meals, accommodations and local transportation.

In Spain the five star hotel , on the waterfront of a naturalist beach in Mar de Las Cana, (boarding Portugal), in the city of Huelva, Serville, was bonus .training futsal on the white sand, surrounded by topless tourist gathering was not an easy task.

However; Canada drew Uruguay, Spain and Australia.
In the first game against Uruguay, the Canadian Players shown the world that they were there to compete and displayed a great performance, before the seventeen years old, Canadian goalkeeper Frank Lecce, allows the Uruguayans score three times, one of our best player Ivan Belfiore had sum burn, only played in the second half.
In the second game against Spain, Canada scored an impressive goal; the ball went between the Spanish keeper legs, Joe Cuzzetto, the goal scorer until now talks about it.

The Spanish team was well prepared, during the qualifying round robin, defeated Australia , Canada and Uruguay. Brazil beat Spain in the final game, 3 to 1 to claim the second world title.
Canada, Japan , Australia and Holland were newcomers as well.

The 8 panel futsal ball are the most recommended due to less mending panels - stitched futsal ball with 30 panels tends to have a bumping bounce when rolling on rubberized futsal courts .

There are many futsal balls on the market since FIFA adopted the game of futsal under great game umbrella. But most of brand name are forgetting the high performance as well as the durability of a futsal ball played on hard surface .

A Futsal Ball is not 'Heavier' than an Outdoor Ball, Actually It's Lighter
By Tim Sheldon Futsal on LIne
8-15-12
It seems that in most descriptions of Futsal that you read, the Futsal ball is described as weighted, heavier or slightly heavier than the outdoor ball. That is not true. According to FIFA specifications, the Futsal ball is lighter than the Size 5 outdoor ball.
The Futsal ball contains some foam to reduce the bounce, but that does not make it "heavy".
To provide an example, I randomly checked the website of a leading Futsal Association and it said Futsal: "is a 5 v 5 small-sided game played on a hard surfaced, basketball sized court with a smaller, heavier low bounce ball."
(Photo: Falcao demonstrates handling characteristics of a Futsal ball.)
I found the example on my first try. Very typical. The Size 4 Futsal ball is actually 10 grams lighter than Size 5 outdoor ball. It can be juggled, chipped, headed, anything you want.
In order to gain the most authoritative information we went tohttp://footballs.fifa.com/Football-Tests/Weight, which contains FIFA Futsal specifications for circumference, roundness, rebound, water absorption, weight, pressure loss, shape and size retention and balance.
According to FIFA, the inspected weight of a Size 5 ball is 410 - 450 grams. The inspected weight for a Size 4 Futsal ball is 400 - 440 grams. The minimum and maximum inspected weights of a Futsal ball are therefore 10 grams lighter than the outdoor ball.
In order to assess bounce, the balls are dropped ten times onto a steel plate from a height of two metres, under controlled temperatures, according to FIFA.

The FIFA chart indicates that the Size 5 ball has a bounce (rebound) of 125 - 155 cm, while the Futsal ball has a bounce of 50 - 65 cm.

Comparing the minimums, we see that the bounce of the Futsal ball is only 40 percent of the bounce of the Size 5. This means the Futsal ball has 60 percent less bounce than the Size 5.

Therefore, we can say that according to FIFA specifications the Futsal ball is a size smaller and 10 grams lighter than the outdoor ball and has 60 percent less bounce.

A report found in USA futsal Ball :

I chose this ball based on reviews at soccer.com and I don't regret buying it. Probably one of the best futsal balls out of many others available here in US such as Nike, Puma and Adidas (Careful with the big brand names as they are all replicas). BTW, we're not futsal newbies, we are 25 adult men - all Brazilians from early 20s to latest 30s, some of us have even played professionally in Brazil and everyone loved this ball.

Since you can't find a Penalty Max 1000 to buy here in US, this Baden Match ball is definitely an alternative.

4 stars because 5 can only go to an official futsal ball like the Penalty Max 1000 <
