Futsal Update for U7-U10
In preparation for the Futsal mini leagues in December we have identified venues in Barnsley, Chesterfield, Rotherham, Stocksbridge and Sheffield.
To finalise the arrangements we now require deposits for each team over the next two weeks and final payments by 22nd August to enable the full fixture list for December to be released by the first week in September.
At the league meeting in July we indicated the costs for each weekend session is £22.50. The local mini leagues will be played for three weeks costing each individual team £67.50.
This year the payments are to be made by BACS and the Sort Code and Account number is 111399 00690966.
To assist with the reconciliation of payment when undertaking your transfer of funds please identify the age group with a prefix of 7, 8, 9 or 10. Then followed by your club reference and the final digit being the number of teams
A sample of examples
• 7 AFC DRON 2
• 8 JNR FOX 1
• 9 SWYO 3
• 10 TREET 2
For simplification please make individual payments for each age group. If a club is entering one age group and two teams then just one transaction is required. If a club is entering four age groups with varying number of teams then 4 payments transactions are required with the end digit reflecting the number of teams. Once a BACS payment has been made then please email at futsal@junleague.com to confirm payment has been undertaken.
If you require further clarification please email me the details and I will respond accordingly.
I am also pleased to announce that the County FA and National FA representatives are keen for our teams to qualify for Regional and National Tournaments.
The offer of qualification will be extended to older age groups within the league and I will contact a sample of clubs/teams to gauge the level of interest.
Further details will be released by the end of August/early September. The proposed qualifying periods and additional mini leagues will be played in January onwards. Full details will be released once we have the guidance from the FA. The estimated costs for Tournaments will be about £25 but as mentioned previously you will be advised over the next few weeks. In addition teams that do not progress in those regional matches will have the opportunity to play further futsal development games and the possibility of tournaments with teams from Manchester, Leeds and Hull.
On Monday and Tuesday evening I will up date those teams that have expressed an interest in the August tournament.
Kind regards
Stuart
