“Futebol de Salao is really how I got started. This is my love, the thing I enjoy the most ,’’ is a quote from Ronaldo, Brazil, Real Madrid and Former FIFA World Player of the World.

The game of Futebol de Salão became popular in Brazil where legendary players such as Pele, Rivelino, Zico and right through to Juninho, Ronaldo, and Rivaldo were brought up first playing FDS before moving onto mainstream soccer. They have all attested to the fact that Futebol de Salão shaped futbol skills. The International Confederation of Futebol de Salao (ICFDS), established Brazilian Football Academies and Soccer Schools in the UK, and now supervise the sport throughout the world, and have started professionally managed centre’s in many countries.

The PIASLC Brazilian Soccer Camps are a skills-based training system that is hosted all year long with emphasis upon school breaks.  The soccer camps consist of daily training with the unique FDS moves to beat players also incorporating turns, passing, juggling and core skills.

Training is skill centered, task focused and has complete involvement.

  A 5 a side game is the best way for children to learn soccer as it gives more touches of the ball, more shooting opportunities, more passes, more chances to take an opponent on 1 on 1. This encourages children to think faster and move the ball quicker due to having less time on the ball.  All coaches at Brazilian Soccer Schools are very qualified, enthusiastic and experienced, and they put the safety of children as the number one priority.
