But what is Futsal or 5 a side soccer anyway?

Five-a-side football or soccer is a version of minifootball, in which each team fields five players (four outfield players and a goalkeeper). Other differences from football include a smaller pitch, smaller goals, and a reduced game duration.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FUTSAL & SOCCER?

Soccer is normally played as an outdoor game on large fields, whereas Futsal or 5-a-side soccer is a type of soccer that is played indoors or outdoors on a much smaller court. The smaller field size ensures a game of Futsal is fast-paced and more intense, with more opportunity for goal scoring.

When does 5-a-side start this season?

Start Date = From TUESDAY 24 JANUARY 2023.
