In January 2025, we were proud to be on the ground at the Gold Coast International Futsal Cup, Australia’s largest and most competitive international futsal tournament.
Across the tournament, 200+ teams and athletes from Australia, New Zealand, the Solomon Islands and Asia competed in an incredible 841 matches, making it a true showcase of elite futsal talent from across Oceania and beyond. From junior age groups through to open-age men’s and women’s teams, the event brought together players, coaches, and families from all over Australia in a high-performance, fast-paced environment.
We partnered with The Ikaika Method physiotherapy team, who worked tirelessly throughout the tournament to support players, parents and coaches — helping athletes prepare, recover, and stay moving across the demanding match schedule. Their expertise played a vital role in supporting performance and managing the physical demands of such a large-scale competition.
Run under the auspices of Football Australia and Football Queensland, the Gold Coast International Futsal Cup continues to stand as the largest international youth futsal tournament in Oceania, providing young athletes with rare exposure to professional coaches and scouts. As a representative regional competition, teams from Queensland, NSW, Victoria and across Oceania battled it out for the coveted Gold Coast International Trophy, awarded to the region or club accumulating the highest overall points.
The scale, intensity, and international calibre of the tournament make it a cornerstone of the Australian futsal calendar — and we’re proud to support events and practitioners that prioritise athlete care, movement, and long-term performance.
Thank you to The Ikaika Method team, for trusting in our recovery products. We’re looking forward to being part of many more moments like this ⚽
