USYF adds leagues in New York, California and Alaska

United States Youth Futsal has added several new leagues spanning from the New York area on the East Coast to Anchorage, Alaska in the Far Northwest.

In addition to Robert DeVassie's league in Anchorage -- Robert will be assisted by Brazilian league director Felipe Abreu -- USYF has added Long Island (N.Y.) Futsal (http://usyouthfutsal.com/longislandfutsal/index_E.html), a 200-team, 2,100-player organization that has been sponsoring futsal leagues for 15 years. It was previously affiliated with USFF. 

USYF has also added Gotham Futsal (http://www.usyouthfutsal.com/gothamfutsal/index_E.html), a league that will operate in the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens.

USYF is proud to also have been joined by a Northern California league operated by Vava Marques, longtime college soccer coach and assistant coach on the U.S. Men's National Team. Vava, a Brazilian, has long been a passionate advocate for futsal in the United States. (www.vavamarques.com).

U.S. Youth Futsal offers new league owners the most detailed support system of any futsal organization. John Sciore, USYF director of development, operates the 200-plus team St. Louis USYF league and is also director of the national tournament. He can help prospective league owners through the start-up phase -- locating a facility, recruiting teams, hiring certified referees etc. You can contact John through the organization's Web site at http://www.usyouthfutsal.com/startaleague/benefitsofaffiliation/index_E.html

John personally replies to all inquiries.
