How Can FUTSAL Help A Goalkeeper?
Goalkeeping needs a combination of skill, athleticism, and decision making. A goalkeeper learns all these things during training as well as in the game of soccer. Futsal gives the goalkeeper the added advantage of learning to react faster because the ball moves faster, as well as getting more involvement in the game since they are more shots on goal.
Goalkeepers must be field players first, before specializing as goalkeepers, children must learn the broader factors of “soccer play”. This is difficult to do when they are afraid to live their goal line beneath the crossbar. Goalkeepers must also learn intuition and anticipation.

Goalkeepers must possess field playing skill. This is particularly true since the rules of the 11v11 game require the goalkeeper to play as a field player, without the use of their hands, at certain times of the game.
Futsal provides all these elements in a faster more challenging environment helping the goalkeeper develop at a faster pace.
