No other 'indoor soccer' is recognized by FIFA.
Futsal is about developing players. It teaches player's ball control, touch, and movement.
Futsal is played all over the world. The game is played on a smaller pitch, 5v5, no off sides, with a smaller heavier ball resulting in less bounce. No walls or boards are used. It educates players on how to better use their teammates.
Comments from EIYSA Members;
- Futsal all the way. Fewer injuries, increased ball control skills... Great Game.
- Futsal has been played in Europe for many years and has been very successful. I think playing indoor soccer with the boards takes away the skills and creativity, which is required in Futsal and outdoor soccer.
