Due to the recently imposed age limit regulation by EUSA, KaDy Students will have to renew radically if it wishes to continue participating in the European Universities Championships. However, the team will take part in EUC competition in Málaga in July 2013 as the age limit is not yet valid there.

2012:

The story: Just as the year before, KaDy organized the National Futsal Championship in Jyväskylä (27th-29th of April). KaDy Students won the competition for the third successive time and earned the right to participate the 2013 European Universities Futsal Championship in Málaga, Spain.

The main objective of KaDy Students was the European Universities Futsal Championship held in Córdoba, Spain, between 16th and 22nd of July. Futsal was one of the ten sports of an enormous student sports event hosted by Córdoba, 1st European Universities Games. After finishing 3rd in an extremely competitive group of four teams, KaDy Students were doomed to the lower category (positions 9-16). In the end, KaDy Students won 4 out of 5 matches and kept a clean sheet 3 times; nevertheless, the final position was no more than 9th.
