Futsal develops several key components that many youth players are missing.
​
This is the game that many soccer legends around the globe grew up playing—Neymar, Marta, Messi, Ronaldinho, Cristiano Ronaldo, and more. These players consistently credit futsal as the key to their skills, ball control, decision-making, speed of play, and much more.

A Message from Coach Andrei
As a former professional player, now a coach with a background in optimizing player development and training innovation, I’ve seen firsthand what truly helps young athletes grow—not just in their skills, but in their confidence and in their inner drive to improve.
Joy Omaha Futsal Club was created to offer something different—a purposeful, player-first environment that builds ball acquisition under pressure, decision-making, adaptability, speed of play, and a long-term approach to development.
Futsal played a huge role in shaping my game, and I want to pass that on to the next generation. Whether your child is already playing at a club or simply eager to improve, this program is built to complement their journey—not compete with it.
I’m excited to coach your child, support your family, and be part of their growth on and off the court.
See you soon,
​
