Last weekend saw around 25 players try out for the Northern NSW Football National Futsal Championships teams at Byron Bay. The Northern NSW Football trials are putting together teams to compete at the National Futsal Championships taking place in Melbourne on January 8–13.
‘There will be four different age groups: boys U14 and U16 and girls U13 and U15,’ Damon Shaw, Futsal Development Manager, told The Echo.
The Byron trials were followed by one at Port Maquarie and the final trials will be at Newcastle.
‘It would be really nice to get players from the whole state,’ said Damon.
‘I’m pretty confident that some of the players from the far north coast region will be selected.’
They are looking throughout the state for the best players to build squads of ten to represent NSW in January.
‘The trials finish on October 27 and following that we will announce the squads’
