Why play Futsal? Playing Futsal allows you to touch the ball nearly twelve times more than soccer. The game places considerable demand on technique, movement, tactical awareness and fitness. Futsal is a great skill developer. It demands quick reflexes, fast thinking, and pinpoint passing. The speed of play is such that you are forced to make quicker technical and tactical decisions.
