Futsal is a fast-paced, soccer-style game played on a hardcourt surface, similar to a basketball court but with marked soccer boundaries. It’s a dynamic, high-energy version of soccer that emphasizes skill, quick decision-making, and ball control.

Key Features of Futsal:

• Smaller Teams: Played with 5 players per team (4 field players + 1 goalie).
• Unique Ball: A smaller, harder, low-bounce ball enhances foot skills and control.
• Fast-Paced Action: The game moves quickly with continuous play and on-the-fly substitutions.
• No Offsides: Players have more freedom to move and create scoring opportunities.
• Kick-Ins: Instead of throw-ins, the ball is put back into play with a kick, keeping the game flowing.

Futsal is a fun and challenging way for players to sharpen their skills and stay active during the winter season!

• Enhanced Ball Skills: The fast-paced, close-quarters nature of futsal encourages players to refine their ball control, use creative footwork, and develop clever passing strategies to outmaneuver opponents.
• Supercharged Touch Count: Players get double the touches compared to outdoor soccer, boosting confidence and skill with the ball.
• More Shooting Opportunities: With more chances to shoot, players can sharpen their finishing skills and improve accuracy in front of goal.
• Next-Level Conditioning: The non-stop action increases fitness and stamina, pushing players to stay quick and agile throughout the game.
• Offseason Fun with Friends: Enjoy a new, exciting version of soccer in the offseason while playing alongside friends in a fun, relaxed environment.
• Exposure to Multiple Coaches: Players will have the opportunity to learn from different HSC coaches, gaining a variety of coaching styles and perspectives.
• Meet New Teammates: Interact with players from across the club, even those not on your regular team, fostering team spirit and camaraderie.
• Referee & Player Development: Gain valuable experience working with referees in a positive setting, helping build both referee confidence and player respect for the game’s officials.
