I would love to some league in Massachusetts take the lead and start a HS Futsal season, maybe a winter sport. While I do think it would NOT help in development over the age of 14, its a great sport.

Sounds like fun, however I’m not sure how teams could compete against basketball for court time when boys and girls basketball are in full swing? When could they practice and have games? Only time courts aren’t used is in spring when kids have club/travel soccer seasons.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post -

No one is required to participate (unless its an ISL school). I would think soccer players wouldnt use it to get better but rather for -- fun and a workout. Just my 2 centsOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Unless you are hoping that it becomes a varsity sport, I would say that the 'need' is already met.Comment

Why not have it as a varsity sport?
As has been said access to facilities is the biggest roadblock because you would probably want to run the season at the same time as basketball and volleyball. Other than that it’s a relatively low cost sport to offer students (from the school budget point of view)Comment

Volleyball for girls is in the fall and for boys is in the spring. Gym time for most schools is for, boys basketball, girls basketball, and indoor track. Most schools rent out facilities as well.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
