Life & Education can be learned in different ways, through classrooms, communities, family, friends, streets, sports & music.  FUTKAL is learning from the streets the game of football with the help of music.  It is the collaboration of all 3 branche into 1 learning process...the game of street soccer.

Making Street Life more colorful through the game of football.

Futkal is an original Filipino term for street soccer.  It is an active lifestyle sport  that will capture a niche market in the football industry --the people of the streets.  For those who were born on the streets, grew up in the streets, and sooner or later die on the streets, Futkal comes in as an alternative way of playing soccer & learning soccer, It is a fast-paced, high-energy, high scoring game -  an extra-ordinary sport that has no rules or boundaries, just guidelines and music to add rhythm to the game.  You won’t find traditional uniforms here, just unique street style that identifies each team’s fashion preferrence.  It brings out an individuals passion for the game, pushing one to perform with a unique flavor that comes from learning from the streets and applying it in real life.

 

We all know that football is a game for us pinoys.  We all feel that it is a game that can make Filipinos happy.  We SEE the potential of us “kayumanggi’ to make it international just like the blacks, whites, all the colors of the world. This game is perfectly suited to pinoys who are fast, skillful, and crafty.  Futkals goal is to uplift Philippine football to a level at par with our neighbors, and help Filipinos get recognized by other Asian & International clubs in its 10 ++ years.

 

Futkal aims to bring the game right in front of them -  right here, right now with a ball, 2 rocks that will serve as goal, and a challenger.  Whether your are 2,4,6,7,8 or 9 players, as long as you know how to kick the ball and run, everything else can be learned during the game.

 

On the mental side of Futkal, we emphasize that physical strength is not as powerful as being analytical…using the mind and making the right decisions at the right moment.  We practice sportsmanship, by accepting defeat, camaraderie by thanking your challenger for the great game, and use positivism  as a tool that will push us forward to the next round.

 

Socially, we will build bridges with all walks of life.  It appeals to everyone from the upper class to the middle class, to the lower class and even lower, from  Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao to Brazil, Portugal, Argentina England, from the poorest country of the world to the richest.  Because of futkal or football in general, we will be able to build bridges with them, getting to know more about their people, culture and country, making us bigger and brighter in the map.

 

All this will not be complete and as fulfilling if we do not put God in the center of our lives.  We are not saying you that you should be holy or re-invent your Christian Catholic ways.  You have the freedom to choose your faith and destiny.

 

This organization is driven by passion and belief that football is a tool that will build better lives, create more opportunities, and develop young talented individuals that will contribute their talents & gifts to our society.
