FUTSAL
One of the most unique aspects of the Future Pathways programme is that students time is split between theory and practical learning.
Futsal is an exciting, fast-paced small-sided football match, the game places a large emphasis on technical skill-and-ability in situations of high pressure.
Cardiff City House of Sport boasts 3 modern Futsal courts where students represent Cardiff City FC in the Association of Colleges Futsal League, playing against Premier League and English Football League opposition on a weekly basis.
