England will play a double header against Poland as part of the Grass Roots Football Show to be held at at London's Excel Arena in the Docklands on 16 and 17 July 2005.

A specially constructed 2,500 seat arena will play host to England’s friendly internationals as part of the exhibition against a very experienced futsal nation, currently ranked 22 in the World.

Before that however Graeme Dell's young Lions will travel to Romania for two fixtures on 21 and 22 June where England will be attempting to reduce the deficit from when the two teams met in Manchester last December.

Futsal boasts a three tier professional league structure in Romania which has demonstrated a rapid escalation in their ranking position and consequently both matches will be televised live on Romanian TV although they are already 3,000 seat sell outs.
