Futsal

Futsal is a format of five-a-side football that is played extensively throughout the world.

The game is often played on a standard basketball court. The official ball is a special low bounce ball that is heavier and smaller than an official size 5 football. As a small sided game, players are constantly placed in situations where they must receive or play whilst under pressure or in confined spaces.
