Why Futsal works — Backed by the Numbers
6x
More Touches
Youth futsal players touch the ball up to six times more per session than in traditional outdoor soccer — perfect for developing control, rhythm, and footwork.
210%
More Decisions
Futsal’s tight spaces require players to make decisions 210% faster, improving their game IQ and reaction speed — skills that translate directly to outdoor play.
30+
Million Players
Futsal is played by over 30 million people worldwide and is the go-to method for developing top talent in countries like Brazil and Spain.
4x
More shots
With fewer players and a smaller court, players get four times more chances to attack, shoot, and score — giving them confidence in front of goal.
Players across North Carolina are using the winter to separate from the pack — and futsal is the secret weapon.
