What Makes This Worth It?

Better Tactical Awareness

Futsal helps players understand tactical concepts such as spacing, movement off the ball, and defensive positioning due to the smaller playing area and reduced number of players.

More Touches on the Ball

According to Dr. Emilio Miranda from Sao Paolo University, a futsal player will have 600% more touches on the ball than a soccer player. This aids in refining ball control and boosts confidence for taking on opponents one-on-one.

Improve Speed of Play

The small space requires players to play and make decisions faster. In futsal, you have only a split second to decide what to do before facing high pressure. This encourages quick movement on and off the ball, creating space and supporting teammates.
