In memorian of the original futsal:

Futsal was created and developed in 1930 in Uruguay by Physical Education Professor Juan Carlos Ceriani. After the first World Cup of Soccer in Uruguay for the trophy “Jules Rimet”, Professor Ceriani concluded, that in order for Uruguay to win the next World Cup, the players needed more agility and faster thinking, that was where the other teams showed superiority, they were much faster than the Uruguayans.

In order to increase the agility of Uruguayan players, Professor Ceriani taught of making the players play in a more reduced space, so they forced to move and think faster. Futsal, came alive when he put his theory in practice on a basketball court at the YMCA in Montevideo, the capital of Uruguay were he earned his living as a Professor of Physical Education.

Since it was played in a enclosed space it was called Futbol de salon or free translated ,room or court soccer. That new modality of playing soccer immediately spread to the neighboring countries, Argentina World’s Vice-Champion, Paraguay and Brazil.

The “Confederación Sudamericana de Fútbol de Salón” or the Futsal Federation of South-America was created in Paraguay’s capital Asuncion.

The FIFUSA was created the Federacao International de Futebol de Salao, the original governing body for Futsal in the world.In Madrid 1985 the name fufbol de salon and all other names the game was called was changed officially and internationally into FUTSAL.

In December 2002 again in Asuncion, Paraguay the Futsal affiliates from the whole planet united under the flag of a proud Confederación Panamericana de Fútbol de Salón (PANAFUTSAL) and FIFUSA was disolved because of non- ethical behavior from mostly European members.

The AMF (Asociacion Mundial de Futsal) was formed during this same convention.

RICARDO FUEYO: "We want the WORLD made in Comodoro"

The holder of the Commodore Sports Agency stressed this afternoon in a radio interview the interest encryption by the municipality and its provincial couple, Walter Ñonquepán, Chubut Sports, to become the square Global club. an event would take place between 10 and November 16 this year in this city in the event that the World Confederation of the sport raising the hypothetical possibility that by now is handled from local areas through Dr. José María Ferreyra De las Casas.

If a decision to that effect from the international body that commands the Football Hall from here would be given the green light to the proposed organization of the tournament which involves the participation of eight teams, four American and four Europeans, to be divided into two groups of four sets.

The other possibility would be to mount the world in Russia, although on a cold and distant Siberian city, a region far to six hour flight from Moscow, the capital of this country, so that the discomfort would be too big even for Europeans not with bad eyes would come to Patagonia to contest the event at the expense of the other possible venue.

Fueyo said in a telephone conversation with Dick Almonacid, driver of the "sports fans" on Radio chronic, that his intention and that of those who accompany them in this is to "move as far as to be able to cover figures, which are high but not unattainable.

In so doing, "Flaco" referred to money that should be expenditures on common costs to resolve all matters relating to the organization, transfers, and stays of equipment and put it into balance with the potential advertising revenue, television and contributions from businesses.

Moreover, while the State would take part with important contributions to provincial and municipal levels, the idea is that the event is self-financing in order to dump that money spent towards improving the development of that sport in Comodoro Rivadavia and the region.

"It's a great tournament, with a local team, this decision has support provincial and municipal levels," said Fueyo, referring to the participation of Casino Club, comodorense team that entered the contest last year and that will accompany the Paraguayan Los Amigos In the city of incarnations, Estudiantes de Venezuela and The Pirates of Colombia, in conjunction with four European teams. The final decision could settle in the next few hours, depending on what is appropriate at the meeting to be held in Asuncion of Paraguay to define the headquarters of the World Cup with which Commodore dreams and their Futsal deserves.
