For Ages 6 to 11
Youth Futsal is a sport that is a derivative of soccer and played with five-man teams on a basketball style court with no walls and a smaller, low-bouncing ball. The surface, ball and rules create an emphasis on improvisation, creativity, and technique as well as ball control and passing in small spaces.
There are many reasons to love futsal. You don’t need as many players as in soccer, and it can be played on any hard surface indoors or out. Because it is fast-paced and continuous, futsal naturally helps players to improve their spatial awareness and reaction time.
