It looks like USFF will continue to have a following. There attempt
to "corner" the sport of futsal and control it is not something that
seems to bother many who have been involved. Although, I think that
US Soccer will ultimately win because 1) they will have control of the
National teams and the International competitions and 2) will provide
the best referee instruction, and 3)have access to the major
sponsorships and sporting goods companies; it appears that we will be
in for a period of time that things will have to settle. It appears
that the West Coast is going to be very supportive of the USFF. The
Midwest is supportive of the Super F League. The East coast has
supporters for both. Only a few see a reason to change what they are
already doing.

US Soccer is going to need to provide opportunities to its membership
by offering international competitions and an ODP style program. They
will have to earn the business.

Competition is good for both organizations as they must now earn the
business, neither should be entitled to it.
