WHY?
Futsal is the only version of indoor soccer officially recognized and approved by FIFA and USSF. It is played with a different ball on a hard surface. Its fast-paced play, 5v5 format, small play area, and lack of side boards encourage developing a good first touch, ball control, and quick decision making.
The game is the best teacher!
