KaDy Futsal in English

KaDy Futsal in a Nutshell

Kampuksen Dynamo (KaDy) was originally a football club founded in 1995 in Jyväskylä, Finland. In 2002, KaDy started competitive futsal from the bottom of the Finnish league pyramid. Since 2009, KaDy has played in the Finnish Futsal League as follows:

Debut season 2009–2010: 6th

Two 2nd place finishes in a row (2010–11 and 2011–12), making a powerful breakthrough to the national futsal elite. Ilves FS won both Championship finals against KaDy.

In the season 2012–13 KaDy dominated the regular season by winning it with an 8-point margin, but the play-offs ended in disappointing third place. However, KaDy won the Finnish Supercup 2012 and the Finnish Futsal Cup 2012–13.

The season 2013–14 was a disappointment, ending with the 5th position.

The season 2014–15 brought KaDy back to the top (2nd place, losing narrowly to Sievi FS in the finals).

In 2015–16 ended with KaDy in the fifth spot, as KaDy's flight came to a crash already in the quarter-finals.

In the season 2016–17, with the return of the ace player and coach Mikko Kytölä from Italy as well as other elite-level enforcements from Catalonia and Tampere, KaDy returned to the top of the league; however, "Game Five" of the final series ended in the main rival Sievi FS's victory 3–2.

In the season 2017–18, KaDy built a very strong team aiming to reach new heights in the lead of Montenegrin top coach Vasko Vujović. And the season was a big success! KaDy was the best team in all respects, winning all domestic titles (Final Four Cup, League regular series and the Finnish Championship). KaDy participated in the UEFA Futsal Champions League for the first time, progressing from Preliminary Round to the Main Round in autumn 2018.

In the season 2018–19, KaDy won the Finnish Championship for the second time in a row, strengthening its position as the best futsal club in Finland and leaving the strongest rival Leijona Futsal (Akaa) in the second spot again.

With season 2019–20 on the doorstep, KaDy will participate in UEFA Futsal Champions League for the second time, with the aim of winning the group in both Preliminary and Main Rounds. Another big goal is to renew the Finnish Championship again, although many top players are leaving KaDy in the summer of 2019.

Ten KaDy players have had appearances in the National team of Finland, many of them in a key role in the team (e.g. the Kytölä brothers, Juha-Matti Savolainen, Jani Korpela and Sergei Korsunov).

We have a competitive and rapidly developing U21 young boys' team, running since 2015. We are in the process of putting together girls' and boys' teams in all ages as soon as we get enough volunteers for running them.

Moreover, KaDy has a couple of less serious teams for futsal lovers: a newly (2015) founded one for women (in the Finnish League) and three for men (Division III team, Seniors U35/U40, and "just-for-fun" team Vellamo). The U21 boys also play in Men's regional Division II, strenghtened with a few more experienced players.

Finally, KaDy occasionally draws together its (university) student force under the name of KaDy Students. KaDy Students won the Finnish student championship 5 times in a row (2010–14), and the team also participated the European Universities Futsal Championships in 2010 in Zagreb, 2011 in Tampere, 2012 in Córdoba, and 2013 in Antequera, Málaga. Since the summer of 2013, KaDy Students have been on a hiatus due to the low number of eligible players, but we are looking forward to revitalizing the team for students' championships once again.
