Father and son think
futsal could be the solution to England’s football future! But they need local
teams to join an under 10s futsal league…
What
Mark
Laughton (38) and his son Jacob (9) are both involved with futsal coaching in
North East Lincolnshire.
Since
September 2011 Mark has been the volunteer assistant futsal coach alongside
Kevin Bryant, the well known futsal organiser. Kevin started an under 10s
training session at the Peaks Lane YMCA Hostel earlier in the year, and Mark’s
son Jacob joined the group in May.
The
under 10s session attracted some older young people, and lead to an under 13s
coaching session now every Thursday 5.30pm to 6.30pm, and a YMCA team in the
U13s Community Futsal League.
Jacob
(9) has made some important contributions to the under 13s team despite his
age, but as reported in a previous article the under 10s team need opposition
now. Kevin and Mark hope to be able to set up an under 10s league as early in
the new year as possible. Do you have a team ready for their futsal challenge?
When
The
YMCA under 10s train every Saturday, 9am to 10am at The YMCA Peaks Lane

Where
Matches
can be played in any suitably sized sports hall. If there is room for
spectators even better
Who
All
of the futsal matches organised by Kevin Bryant are FA registered with FA
referees. If you have 7 players under 10 years of age on 30 August 2011 who
want to challenge the YMCA team contact Kevin
Mark
is a level 1 FA coach, and works as a youth and community development
co-ordinator
Why
Futsal is a small-sided version of football,
using a low-bounce ball which improves a player’s touch, turns and technique. It
is fast and fun
8 years ago Mark played in one of the adult
futsal leagues currently based at Second Avenue Resource Centre. He made some
solid appearances for Grimsby Baptist Church. Mark was impressed by the style
and standard of football this game produced even then. Now he sees his eldest
son improve weekly
