Benefits of Futsal
Futsal is a fast paced, exciting, small sided football game that originated from South America.
The five-a-side game is played on a flat indoor pitch with a ball that has reduced bounce.
The game of futsal encourages skilful and creative play whilst emphasising ball retention.
Small court sizes generally range between 25-42 metres by 15-25 metres
