Football NSW is now inviting suitably qualified coaches to apply for several coaching positions in its Futsal State Team Country Program for 2020.

The Football NSW Futsal State Team program provides players with the opportunity to compete at the FFA Futsal Nationals and be exposed to both the highest level of futsal available and the expertise of FNSW/FFA selectors and coaches.

For coaches, this is a great opportunity to display an understanding of the Coaching Process consistent with Futsal principles. The tournament environment helps coaches improve player management and planning skills with an unfamiliar group of players. As with the players, this is an excellent opportunity for your own development and future identification for further advanced positions in the elite coaching area.
