Trinidad and Tobago’s U-23 Men’s Futsal Team took home the Bronze medal in the Caribbean Games with an 8-2 victory over Martinique in the third place playoff at the Palais Des Sports Du Gosier on Sunday.

“[…] Educators refer to ‘recency and frequency’ as part of the learning process, and when you look at our players, they all possess tremendous individual skill. It follows therefore that the more they play futsal, the more adept at it they will become.

Trinidad and Tobago’s Under 23 Men’s Futsal squad for the Caribbean Games in Guadeloupe has been finalized by head coach Paul Decle. The tournament which is being hosted by the Caribbean Association of National Olympic Committees will see T&T come up against the hosts on July 1st and Suriname on July 2nd in Group A matches. The other participating nations in Group B include Cuba, Martinique and Curacao.

T&T Futsal team coach, Constantine Konstin, sees a bright future of the sport locally, after the national team’s display at the last week’s Concacaf Futsal Championships in Guatemala.

After two years of on-field inactivity,the Futsal Association of Trinidad and Tobago (FATT) and the Tobago Youth Football League will host a Futsal Youth Camp this month.

Che Benny scored probably the goal of the tournament but he could not stop a gutsy T&T team from going down to host Guatemala 3-4 on Wednesday night in the Futsal CONCACAF World Championships at the Domo Polideportivo de la CDAG in Guatemala City, Guatemala.

FORMER Strike Squad player Clayton Morris spearheaded a nine-member Trinidad and Tobago contingent which completed a Futsal High Performance course courtesy of the Confederation of Brazil Football (CBF) on Sunday.

Lack of experience and an unclear system of attack and defence are the reasons for not only a poor showing by the country's futsal footballers against the Dominican Republic in the opening match of the Futsal CONCACAF World cup Qualifiers in Guatemala on Tuesday night but also for the embarrassing 6-2 result.
