difference

[goal_scorer]

can some one please explain the differences between futsal and regular indoor football, cheers in advance

[Fiasco]

futsal is played with boundaries. and the ball can go out of play
indoor = no boundaries, there is a net or wall

Futsal ball = small, less bounce, panelled ball
indoor = bouncy tennis ball like, larger ball

Futsal = larger goals
indoor = smaller goals

indoor = players cannot go in penalty box except keeper and keeper cannot leave box
futsal - players can run anywhere

depends on the place but that comparison is arguable

[PENALTY 5]

Is their a rule in futsal or indoor that the ball can not be kicked over a certain height.

[harrycripps]

I've always been of the opinion that futsal, as played by the brazilians and spanish etc, means 'futbol de sala'. or indoor soccer, and that the game without rebounds was simply 5 a-side soccer.

i like indoor better because it is more recreational and better for fun.

[Valentino The Immortal]

Seems to vary. Where I play now no height restriction (except for hitting the roof), where I played before they had a height restriction.

At the Magill Sports Centre, the real game of Futsal is played in a FIFA size Court.
The game is officiated by two accredited Futsal Referees who have been to the National Futsal Championships interstate on a regular basis and all the futsal rules are applied, including kick ins, corners, goal clearances, accumulated fouls and the competition is vey well organised.
Currently there are Tuesday and Wednesday night competition which are both starting in early June and we are taking nominations for a brand new Sunday night Competition...

Email adelaidestingray@bigpond.com and find out your nearest Futsal competition. Futsal the greatest game in the world. Now if Aussies new why the Brazilians kept Futsal a secret for so long, you would think everybody would be playing futsal fulltime. Take a look at http://www.adelaidestingrays.com.au and check your nearest futsal club, they will have one nearest to you and go and have a look for yourself or even better go and meet the man that coaches with passion and knows the game. You might get an opportunity to tour interstate with Stingrays Teams or even better go to Brazil to watch the world cup, and while there train in one of the camps so you train like a Brazilian, eat like a brazilian, walk like a brazilian, dance like a brazilian, you need to see it for yourself to understand how far behind we really are. Take the time to compare.
