Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Futsal?
Futsal is a dynamic, indoor version of football played on a smaller pitch with five players per team. It emphasises skill development, quick decision-making, and teamwork. The smaller playing area encourages creativity and ball control, making it an exciting and engaging way for children to improve their football skills while having fun.
​
2. What age groups do you offer futsal programs for?
We are starting out with programs for 7-10 year olds, providing a fun and engaging environment for young players. In the future, we plan to add sessions for older children to expand our offerings and foster their development. Stay tuned for updates on new age groups!
​
3. Do children need prior experience to join?
No experience in football or futsal is required! We welcome all children who are eager to participate, learn, and have fun. Our programs are designed for beginners, so everyone can feel comfortable getting involved.

Children should wear clothing suitable for physical activity. Every player is required to wear shinpads. Don’t forget to bring a water bottle to stay hydrated during the session.
