FCS History - Futsal Champions Series

About

The Futsal Champions series is a futsal league that operates in the United States of America.

The Futsal Champions Series is a United States Futsal League that currently operates in the Midwest region of the USA. Our mission is to build an infrastructure that can support a professional futsal league in the United states. WE see three main pillars to support that structure. First is to build a futsal culture. Second, is to provide a futsal pathway for youth to connect to the higher levels of futsal after highschool, and third, to return revenue back to teams to sustain a constant investement in facilities and team infrastructure.
