Who are we?
ECYFL was formed by a group of experienced town-based youth soccer coaches, referees and administrators as a non-profit organization to offer and promote off season training and competitive futsal play opportunities for the players and coaches of Essex County and its neighboring communities that are affiliated with Massachusetts Youth Soccer and US Youth Soccer.

What is Futsal, and Why play it?
Futsal is a form of 5v5 soccer and is the only form of indoor soccer sanctioned by FIFA and USSF. It is played without boards on a hard surface using a special ball. Match play is governed by modified FIFA Futsal Laws of The Game.
The surface, ball and rules create an emphasis on improvisation, creativity and technique as well as ball control and passing in small spaces. These factors combine to allow players to develop quick, confident touches, and make quick, confident decisions on and off the ball while playing a fast paced, exciting game.
