Are you the most talented 5-a-side player in your team? We want the best local talent to strengthen our Men’s National Futsal Series squad for the 2024/25 season with the recruitment process now underway.
Our mens team was formed in April 2019 and in their first season won the National Futsal League Championship North and with it promotion to the National Futsal Series 2 which is the second tier of futsal in England. However COVID struck and mens futsal was placed on pause. We are now ready to go for the 2024/25 season and aiming to get promoted at our first attempt.
A futsal season follows the football season with games 2 or 3 times a month on a Sunday between September and May. There is real talent in our squad and we have had several players part of the FAs England pathway at youth levels in the past. Competition for places is high and securing a place in our 12 man matchday squad is not easy, but for those with the talent, intelligence and attitude the rewards are huge. We play in front of sell out crowds at the Sands Centre in National competition and provide the opportunity to win cups, qualify for Europe and one day possibly even progress down the International pathway to represent your country.
We are aware that 99% of people have never played Futsal and so probably don’t understand what makes a good Futsal player. Being a good footballer doesn’t automatically make you suitable for Futsal although there are a lot of transferable’ s. The graphic below presents an idea of what we look for when identifying potential within a player. If you think you have any of these attributes and are age 15+ then we want to hear from you. Don’t worry if you don’t have them all. We have a highly experience team of coaches who will help you develop your game so that you can realise your potential.
Our mens team is underpinned by a strong Club structure, the foundation of which is our thriving academy programme which has over 150 players age 5 to 15 from around the county playing each week at our academy centres across Cumbria.
Express your interest in joining our mens team by contacting Al on 07484162456 or Phil on 07897840949 or email info@carlislefutsal.com and a member of the coaching team will be in touch.
