FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


The SFA and SAFA will partner with the FPL to launch a futsal initiative in Scotland that should really help put futsal back on the map in Scotland. 
(Nov 2005)

The main priorities of the partnership will see the FPL role out a similar structure as its been doing south of the border over the last 18 months. A national league will see a Scottish entry into the UEFA Futsal Cup. The FPL will also boost its current regional leagues from 2 to 6 over the next 2 seasons. The initiative will also hope to see a Scotland national team as well as include futsal in the SFA's football development programme.  

On the regional front, a series of centres will be established. The first of the new regional centres will be at The Jack Kane Centre in Edinburgh. Applications are invited from any teams wishing to participate. 

The FPL Scotland Leagues will be the only leagues to provide an access route to the Scottish National Futsal League to be held in the spring/summer of next year, with the incentive for the winners being the opportunity to represent Scotland in next season’s UEFA Futsal Championship.

Edinburgh already has a strong link with the game of Futsal and the FPL with numerous teams playing in the Leagues at Heriot Watt University. With subscription for the Heriot Watt leagues already full, the demand for further competition has prompted the creation of the FPL Scotland Jack Kane League.

It is hoped that further venues will be identified in the very near future to meet the demand created following the successful Total Futsal events during the summer of this year and the FPL would be delighted to hear from teams and players interested in joining. An Open Day taster session will take place at the Jack Kane Centre on Sunday 4th of December from 1-5pm. To book a place, please contact Mark Potter at mark@thefpl.com.
