Premiere Futsal League

“Over the years of playing Futsal with the National Team, I have seen the tremendous benefits that Futsal has had on soccer players around the world. Throughout Brazil, Italy, Spain, Costa Rica, Belgium, the Far East and everywhere in between, Futsal has been responsible for the technical ability of many of the top international players.” – Lee Tschantret 

 

"In futsal you need to think quick and play quick so it's easier for you when you move to normal football (outdoor soccer)." - Pele


"Futsal will always be my first love." - Ronaldo 

 

The Premiere Futsal  League was started in 2004 by Lee Tschantret and has grown in participants every year. Last season it hosted over 100 youth teams in 15 divisions. It currently runs out of the Park School and Loyola Blakefield High School in Baltimore, MD
