FAQ's

What is Futsal?

Futsal is a small-sided, indoor soccer game that's played on a hard court and is recognized by FIFA as the official indoor soccer game.

What is the difference between Futsal and Soccer?

Futsal and soccer are very similar in many ways, however, there are a few key differences. The differences are mainly in terms of rules, playing surface, team size, and ball characteristics. Futsal is played on a smaller, hard indoor court, like a basketball court, with defined boundaries and no walls. Futsal teams have 5 players per side (4 field players plus a goalkeeper). Futsal uses a smaller, heavier ball with less bounce, making it easier to control on a hard court.

What are the age groups?

For our first season, we will have U8, U10, U12, U10 and High School age groups.

What equipment do I need?

All players are required to wear shin guards. Socks should cover the shin guards at all times, ensuring players protection. Indoor flats or tennis shoes are needed as all Futsal games and practices will be indoors. Cleats are NOT allowed.

When are practices?

Practices will be held at the Ringgold Church’s gym during the week. Each player/team will practice once a week. Practice schedules will come out closer to the start of the season and will be determined based on the number of players we have registered at each age group.

When are games?

Games will be held at the Leitersburg Ruritan and the Ringgold Church’s gym on Saturday mornings. Each age group will play a 40 min game (two 20 min halves).
