SKILL DEVELOPER: The game demands quick reflexes, fast thinking, and pinpoint passing. Futsal uses a smaller, heavier, low bounce ball. Ground control and first touch are essential to success in the game.
BALL TOUCHES: In a statistical study comparing Futsal to indoor arena soccer with walls, players touch the ball 210% more often.
BALL CONTROL: With limited space, an out of bounds and constant opponent pressure, improved ball control skills and technique are required.
SPEED OF PLAY: With limited space, constant opponent pressure and a 4 second restart rule players learn to play and think fast.
SUPPORT OF PLAY: Without a wall or rebound boards to rely on in order to escape from tight situations, you must make supporting runs when teammates have the ball.
FOUNDATION: Many of soccer’s greatest players like Messi, Pelé, Ronaldo, Iniesta, and Neymar all grew up playing futsal and credit futsal with developing their skills.
KNOWLEDGE: With four court players and all the basic options of the outdoor game in non-stop action mode, players' understanding of the game is enhanced.
MORE TECHNICAL: Futsal rules encourage technical play and do not permit the aggressive physical play that soccer allows
CONTINUITY OF PLAY: Action is continuous, so players are forced to continue the play instead of stopping and watching like in Soccer.
MORE AND MORE: More shooting, more goals, more action! Players rotate positions throughout the game, so every player is 100% involved in every game.
