Unveiled:

In 2023, the Federated States of Micronesia Football Association (“FSM”) held its first ever futsal competition in Pohnpei funded largely from shirt sales after Stingz™️ custom designed and supplied kits for Yap, Chuuk, Kosrae and Pohnpei that sold across the world with all profits going towards flying the players to the event.

This year, we are taking our support for FSM to the next level, and are proud to unveil the official 2024 away playing jersey!

The new away jersey comes in a navy colourway with v-necked collar design. The monogram of pacific blue stars are inspired by the stars on the flag of the Federated States of Micronesia. Four larger white stars across the front panel represent the four federated states of Chuuk, Pohnpei, Kosrae and Yap, which are also aligned as the states are on the map.

Best of luck in the coming year and we look forward to seeing the men and women of the Federated States of Micronesia participating in their first international fixtures shortly.

@paul_c_watson One day, the FSM will get that first goal in WC qualifiers. From there it's only a matter of time until we score in the final!

It’s really an honor to be featured in @FourFourTwo magazine alongside some of the greatest stories in football. We want to take a quick moment to thank everyone who has been supportive of our efforts along the way!

Another huge step for the Marshall Islands Soccer Federation and the other nations in the region.

Despite the hugely vast differences in time zones, we achieved a call today (6am UK, 5pm Majuro and 6 other zones in between!) to discuss regional progression …

… a Futsal Cup is coming in 2024. Watch this space!

idea, the next-best thing was to hold a futsal tournament between the four island-states of the FSM!
Super proud to see the progress of the sport already!
It has been a little less than a year since I have been so lucky to have been involved with the planning and execution of
