Niko Alexopoulos, director of Central Jersey Futsal, has been utilizing futsal as a means of soccer development and as a sport itself for over 14 years. Niko is someone believes passionately that futsal should be intentionally used as a tool for developing soccer players year-round and come first in the developing process at the younger starter age groups of 3-12 years of age. He has a massive amount of experiences, observations, thoughts and ideas from being submerged in the futsal community as a player, coach and operations director waiting to be released that could truly benefit the futsal community as well as the soccer coach that is just getting into the futsal methodology as a soccer development tool as well as the futsal game itself.

"We, here at Central Jersey Futsal believe in putting kids and families first over profits. This is why we make it a priority for our events to be priced fairly for all to enjoy as well as provide scholarship opportunities for those that are in need."
