What is futsal? Futsal is a fast-paced ball sport similar to soccer but typically played on a small, hard surface court. Games are played between two teams of five, including a goalkeeper for each side. Players use a smaller, harder, low-bounce ball to score goals. Futsal is a game that outdoor soccer players around the globe play to refine and maintain their ball control skills.
