Why do the Vikings keep advertising ACT when there are no ACT teams in the draw?
National Championships?????????
In the 15girls there are 4 teams and 3 of those are from QLD, the other from Tasmania.
In the 13girls out of 7 teams there are 4 that are from QLD, 2 from Tasmania and 1 from NZ.
It isn’t only the girls though, the 10boys should have just held their comp on the gold coast as well. Out of 7 teams, 6 are QLD teams.
Seriously, how can Vikings call this a National Championship.
And as Simon stated, there are no ACT teams in the comp. Why advertise it that they are competing?
Think you’ll find the same could be said about the NSW State champs sorry meant FFA nationals.
ahhhh…… nothing like starting the new year with a bit of lively banter….. oh and a pissing contest……*L*
Didn’t say it couldn’t be said about the FFA.
Did I?
It seems a bit pointless though bringing 6 QLD teams to sydney for one age group, just so they can play against each other.
but you certainly implied it was just about the Vikings…. didn’t see any mention of FFA.
I hear that argument all the time from small tournaments to nationals but at the end of the day it nothing more than a venue. Hell Man U won the Champions League against Chelsea in Moscow… in your words what is the point of that…. should have stayed home huh
Don’t know why ACT are mentioned no teams playing
Ther are 118 teams competing at the FFA Nationals. 57 from NSW, 27 from ACT, 7 from QLD, 12 VIC, 9 SA, 1 WA and some overseas teams.
Seems to me both Vikings and FFA have a weighting problem.
who cares! good luck all the teams at each nationals!

Pretty easy to work out what comp is a “Nationals”
U r all idiots, queensland is going to kick arse
yeah michael, probably another queensland arse !!!
Boys, Boy’s stop all that bickering, what do you expect from a sport that’s divided in so many organisations. Look at it this way, if the FFA kept their nose out of a sport that they dont give a ????????, and Soccer NSW gave back Futsal to Futsal people,
then Australian Futsal would be able to organise one hell of a national Championship.
But then again as long we keep on taking sides, that dream of one hell of a national championshis is a few years away.
Bringing outdoor teams coached by outdoor coaches from other states so the FFA can look good its just not Futsal.
at the time of putting together the Vikings Nationals there was a rumor that ACT was going to jump ship. Yes you are right, ACT should have been taken off by now.
Good luck to the Solomon Islands teams
Well said Bob
Futsaldad…. I find it funny with the comparison. You use the 13/14 boys from the individual club titles against the state series at the FFA tourny. FFA aren’t even running a club section.
FFA Nationals Snr Men 9 teams of which 4 are NSW and 2 ACT, Snr Women 8 teams 5 are from NSW
Shall we go on….. no there’s no need. Both tournaments have their multiple sides, as Bob said image the sport in the hands of Futsal people…. man what a tournament that would be…. back to the good old days
Watch this space
ACT was never going with Vikings, what a load of bull.
Futsaldad used the wrong example. How about this:
FFA 15 Boys
ACT Cobras
NSW Thunder
NSW Lightning
Queensland
Victoria
Western Australia
Northern NSW
South Australia
Southern NSW
Vikings 15 Boys
um….
FFA 14 Girls
ACT Cobras
ACT Colts
NSW Thunder
NSW Lightning
Queensland
South Australia
Northern NSW
Vikings 14 Girls
???
Vikings 11, 12, 16 Girls seem to be missing from the draw as well, that must be some sort of mistake…
this site is becoming a joke because of all the slanging……….
how about people just try and better the sport of futsal!
like i said in an earlier post…… GOOD LUCK TO ALL FUTSAL TEAMS IN BOTH COMPETITIONS AND LETS HOPE THESE PLAYERS CONTINUE!!
why does it matter that there are states that out number others, all that is doing is showing the commitment each state has to the game to aspire to higher goals. im from the north coast in nsw and these sort of championships gives us a platform to build towards and improve the game in our region, we dont have all the competitions cities get we deal with what we are offered.
remember every state has the right to enter as many teams they want maybe we should be getting on the back of states that arent entering teams into the national championships, like ACT apart from sydney they are the closest to these venues yet have no representation…
*** by ACT with no representation i was proclaiming the Vikings tournament
Ive just completed the FFA futsal Review…thought it might be more productive than joining in the sledging above ! (but there again I can join in if you really want me too ?) lol
i agree we need to build the game not bring down the foundations
so basically, its the same old fight over the same old stuff.
everyone has to remember that vikings is what it says it is, futsal focused. However, ultimately it’s a business, it seeks profit. The quality of vikings futsal is low and they intentionally have misled people into playing in their nationals, as this will boost profit.
their lies (such as “australian teams” and “2009 nationals” are tarnishing the sport.
its about time vikings accepted that they are an indoor soccer business, and they have no worth to the australian futsal scene.
Glen Quag. What do you mean Vikings have being misleading and are a business for profit. Can you give some specifics/details. I would be keen to know?
My son is playing in the Vikings tournament and I certainly would not want him playing for an organsisation which tells lies and tarnishes the sport. However, if what you say is merely opinion or hearsay, then I suggest strongly you keep those opinions to yourself.
Even the strongest FFA supporter would recognise Glen Quags comments for what they are Old Timer. I know ignorant garbage like that is hard to read sometimes but this fool will feel quite silly when he/she finds out who is playing Vikings futsal in 2009. Read between the lines and you realise they are juvenile comments from a very young ( and ill informed) author……………………………………………..
Tend to agree with Glen Quag (although I may of used different words).
I can’t help but notice that a week ago the teams in the Vikings “Nationals” draw were called random names like “The Benchwarmers” and “Earth Test Gunnerz”. Now the latest draw uses nothing but State names?
Futsaldad – I think you are a little confused. Vikings ALWAYS had two draws – one for the state vs state tournament – National Futsal Championships (13 – 15 January), and one for the clubs tournament – National Team Championships (17 & 18 January). We should give you the benefit of the doubt and put it down to ignorance, or maybe it is another unsubstatiated swipe at Vikings.
Futsaldad, you appear to go to a lot of effort to get the totally wrong information ! Hope you dont feel too embarrassed ! lol
OK I will stand corrected.
However I do know that a NSW Super League team was invited to enter a team as “NSW” in the Vikings Nationals. They were assured by the Vikings organisers that the team would be very competitive. However they couldn’t get the numbers and no team was entered.
F.SALA no not too embarrassed. It wasn’t too hard to confuse that club teams were being entered as State Teams when that is EXACTLY what was being done. I have all the emails to prove it.
Ah don’t you love it…. he said she said….
Glen Q…… dosn’t every sport try to make a profit… if they don’t they will soon not exist. With profit comes expansion and growth… and how much of that is happening at the FFA. I think you’ll find Vikings are a Not for Profit organisation…. you should look up the meaning… I think you’ll be surprised.
The NSW Nationals made good reading winner NSW… winner NSW. Congrats to the QLD 13boys and the Vic 11 boys as the only non NSW teams to win
Hey i think it’s time we had another review hell the FFA and NSW are doing one (but not completed until March) post Futsal season, shelved over winter forgotten by next season…. trend here??? but there is a review maybe we’ll get a review of the review which will be reviewed
Futsaldad. I thought you would have cut your losses and got out of this while you only looked confused, dig the hole deeper if you must ! lol
The facts are that the U14 Northern Tigers super league were approached to enter a team as NSW in the Vikings Nationals 13-15 Jan (not the club event) I have the emails to prove it.
This does not go well for the credibility of an event promoted as a National championship.
F.SALA – if you deem to reply to this please address the facts and leave the personal insults out. Thanks
So the U14 Northern Tigers are not from NSW ? I love your repeat of “I have the emails to prove it ” !!! Who do you need to prove it too ? In my day the NSW, Sthn NSW and NTHN NSW teams were predominantly from Sydney. But as we were more interested in the children playing at the Nationals noone had to take proof of their address with them to qualify !
You hang on to those emails, they sound important…………….. to YOU !
I suspect that many of the NSW/NSW City teams will be drawn from players already registered with FFA for their Futsal. Good luck to them anyway.
Futsaldad – I think what you are trying to say is that this would never happen in an FFA sanctioned tournament………..NOT!! The WHOLE Victorian (FFV) Youth Girls squad was made up of students from St. Monicas Secondary College including the coach and team manager.
this is just a joke of a comp
have a look at all the teams entered. all from qld,
surely vikings andffa can come up with some agreement to let these qld playersplay in a decent comp and not just against them selves.
the qld mens have 6 futsalroos? and they are playing against rubbish teams, what is the benefit? surely they would of loved to of gone to asia?
Just heard of a result and apparently they only beat a super league side 6-4?
maybe nsw is too strong all round. thats why qld have gone with there own comp? to win trophies?
