Futsal is a small-sided game that is played on a small field about the size of a basketball court. The game is played with the touchline boundaries with no walls to bang the ball against. The ball is a special low bounce ball that is heavier and smaller than a regular soccer ball and it forces a player to use their skill rather than the ball’s bounce to propel it.
