About U.S. Futsal
United States FUTSAL (USFF) has governed the sport of Futsal in the United States since 1981 at the Junior, Adult, and Professional level.  U.S. Futsal, the only Futsal organization directly affiliated to U.S. Soccer, was first affiliated in 1988; it governs futsal league play, with leagues designed for Junior as well as adult players of all ages. U.S. Futsal conducts eight Regional Championships throughout the United States, culminating with the U.S. Futsal National Championship, the oldest, biggest and most prestigious Futsal Competition in the United States.  Futsal is “the way the world plays indoor soccer” and is the international form of indoor soccer approved by the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA).  It is played on all the continents of the world in over 100 countries by more than 12 million players. Futsal is played on a basketball-size court.  It can be played on a variety of surfaces. Without the use of walls, futsal is a great skill-developer, demanding quick reflexes, fast thinking, and pin-point passing.  It is an exciting game for children and adults. Great soccer superstars such as Pele, Zico, Maradona, Ronaldo and Messi grew up playing the game and credit Futsal with developing their skills.  Futsal is played with a special low bounce ball, requiring players to use their skills, rather than the ball's bounce, to propel it.  For more information, visit futsal.org, usfutsal.org and usJuniorfutsal.org or contact info@futsal.com.
