If you are unfamiliar with Futsal, it’s an exciting, fast-paced form of indoor five a side sport that originated in South America. Played on hard pitches with small-sided teams, Futsal places emphasis on technical skill in a smaller playing area which lends itself to the development of both technically and tactically minded players. Unlike five a side football, Futsal has some unique differences regarding rulesets, with examples being a 4 second rule to take any restart and the use of a size 4, heavier ball. Originating primarily in South America, Futsal has aided the development of many high-profile footballers, such as Messi, Ronaldinho and Neymar.

The dedicated Futsal SCL arena, based at Ordsall Leisure Centre is split into 1 senior court and 2 junior courts:

  • Senior Court – 30m x 20m
  • Junior Courts – 20m x 15m

Applications and enquires are now open with availability during the day and into the evening. Please contact jake.barnes@scll.co.uk.

Thanks and we look forward to welcoming you to the Futsal SCL arena soon!
