About Futsoul

Futsoul is a community organisation keen to bring the social benefits of futsal to the city of Bristol - transforming peoples mental and physical health along the way. Passionate about uniting different groups of people together through sport we want to help build stronger, more cohesive communities. In a city where 91 languages are spoken there are still many social, cultural and economic walls that stop people flourishing. We have a three-stranded approach: - Working with children in schools to develop their emotional and social skills through futsal; - Creating fun and safe spaces within communities for young people to gather; - Facilitating matches and tournaments that bring people from different walks of life together. We’re at the start of our journey as a community organisation, working with the police, local authorities, schools and voluntary organisations to build safer communities. Futsal is a fun and social version of 5-a-side football, played without walls - this opens up the space in the court and requires teams to play as one, instead of as individuals. It increases awareness of how our choices impact those around us, teaching different personality types how to bring their skillsets together. The game is highly regarded by the likes of Ronaldo, Messi and England manager Gareth Southgate. Over recent decades it has increasingly formed a key part of communities in South America, East Asia, and many parts of Southern and Eastern Europe. We are looking for key partners with whom to create innovative futsal spaces across the city. To achieve this vision in Bristol, we will need the help of housing and multi-use-site developers, architects, community leaders and a spectrum of private and public funders.
