Futsal Details
Futsal is more than just an indoor soccer game — It is the tool used by clubs around the world to develop great players.
Futsal is the only indoor soccer recognized by FIFA. Futsal is taking the country by storm as soccer players, coaches and clubs discover the unique and positive qualities of Futsal. It is a game played around the world and many of today’s Brazilian soccer stars began by playing Futsal.
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. Futsal is a skill game that develops the overall fundamentals of soccer. Players will develop quicker reflexes, faster thinking, and passing along with a better touch and technique.
Famous players around the world like Ronaldinho, Cristiano Ronaldo, Robinho, Juninho and many others honed their early foot skills while playing Brazilian Futsal.
