We've been with Footstars Academy for over a year now and love everything about it.

I love how the coaches teach and guide the kids on the court while the game is being played and are super friendly. We have seen Adam develop a lot since joining Footstars FC. The skills he is taught at Footstars have been applied in his outdoor games, too.

Definitely more of a big family than a company. Love it. #morethanaclub

Ben has had a great experience at Footstars. Nat, the founder, and Dane, the coach, care about players as individuals. 

They spend quality time with each player, observing them and providing individual feedback after each training session. 

There are ample opportunities to put their training in action with regular games. Games are recorded and analysed as the basis for feedback for players and the whole team. Ben's self-confidence has increased since joining FSA.

We've been with Footstars for 4 years and it has been a joy to watch my kids Nicolas and Nate improve their confidence, ball control, footwork and quick decision making. Futsal is also fun to watch and gets bonus points because it helps with their soccer season.

Natalia, Dane & the team encourage good sportsmanship on and off the court, are really passionate at what they do and will bring the best out of each player.

Couldn't recommend Footstars Academy highly enough!

My son Charlie has been training and playing with FSA for the past 5 years. In this time he has trained with different coaches, all of whom have given him the perfect mix of encouragement and challenge. He looks forward to every training session and game, and always comes away feeling positive no matter the outcome.

He has had the opportunity to play in highly competitive tournaments and his skills and confidence have grown immensely. Dane and Natalia are amazing role models for their players and are unwaveringly supportive and proud of their efforts and progress.

Most importantly FSA players support their team mates and are expected to demonstrate good sportsmanship and respect for fellow players, coaches and officials.

Big thanks to Dane and Natalia for creating such a fun and encouraging environment for kids to learn and love futsal

The coaches bring not only a high level of technical and tactical knowledge but also a deep passion for the game. Their commitment to developing each player’s skills is evident in the precise, well-executed strategies and the impressive level of play on the court and in their training.

Our journey with Footstars Futsal Academy (FSA) began in 2021, and it has been a transformative experience for Charlie. Over the past few years, Charlie has developed both his core skills and tactical knowledge, thanks to the dedicated and experienced coaches at FSA.

Charlie eagerly looks forward to every training session and the ongoing competitions, which have significantly contributed to his growth as a player. The opportunity to compete in tournaments with FSA has been both challenging and exciting, further enhancing his love for the game.

What truly sets FSA apart is its commitment to long-term player development. The coaches prioritize the overall growth and development of each player over simply winning matches, although the thrill of victory is certainly enjoyed as well.

We are grateful for the positive environment and the excellent coaching that FSA provides. Seeing Charlie’s improvement and passion for futsal grow continuously has been incredibly rewarding. We highly recommend Footstars Futsal Academy to any young athlete looking to develop their skills and enjoy the game

From the beginning, the experience has been fantastic. The coaches at Footstars are incredibly skilled and dedicated. They provide personalised attention to each player, helping them refine their techniques and build confidence on and off the court.

Their passion for the sport is infectious, and it shows in the way they engage with the kids.

The academy’s emphasis is not just improving futsal skills but also fostering a sense of teamwork passion, personal growth and fair play.

What sets Footstars apart, is their ability to make each training session enjoyable and effective. My children look forward to every practice session and also game days. I’ve seen growth and progress in both their skills and their passion for the futsal game.

If you’re looking for a futsal program that combines expert coaching and a supportive environment, Footstars Futsal Academy is the place to be.

It’s been a fantastic experience for us, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent or player looking to take their futsal game to the next level!
