How coaches use it
Three futsal shapes on one page: the 2-2 box, the 1-2-1 diamond and the 3-1. A futsal team has four court players and a goalkeeper, and the court players rotate all the time, so a shape in futsal is a starting picture and a set of passing lanes more than a fixed set of positions.
Coaches print it for the first session of a winter futsal season, when outdoor players meet the fixo, the alas and the pivot for the first time. Start with the 2-2, which is the simplest to explain, then show the diamond when the players can pass and move. The line under each shape says who it suits.
