Futsal Benefits
Futsal as a game naturally brings players into regular one-on-one situations with their opponent, encouraging players into quick decision-making as to how they overcome these scenarios; this could be through beating the opponent with a skill, or through clever passing to a team-mate.
But one of the core attributes Futsal teaches young players is the importance of ball retention due to the threat of an immediate counter-attack.
The nature of Futsal with the smaller confines of the pitch that makes it harder to find space, the line markings that prevents easy escape from tight situations (such as in traditional 5-a-side where players can play the ball off the wall), and the smaller heavier ball which supports closer ball control and manipulation supports the technical development of young players in a multitude of ways.
In Attack
There are no boards to save misplaced passes, touches, long balls and shots off target. There are no walls for holding the ball, or your opponent. Controlling the ball, executing positive touches and technique is part of being consistent. Futsal demands you to be more productive, whilst innovative combinations is a must.
In Defense
You can shut & show down an attacking player just like Football as there are no boards to support the attacker. You make decisions whether to regain misplaced passes, or see the ball out of bounds to win the ball. Goalies and defenders can concentrate on effective shot blocking angles. You can counter the counter attacks. Generally, you can form competent defensive techniques, which translates into Football
Your Skills
By playing Futsal you touch the ball double the amount of times you would by playing football. Futsal balls have a low bounce, it spends much more time on the floor which is excellent for development of skills and ball control. In this game, players find themselves playing under pressure in confined spaces. It is played to touchlines and all players are free to enter the penalty area and play the ball over head-height. The pitch size demands quick decision making, movements off the ball and intensity.
There are many differences to our traditional version of five-a-side, a contrast in the laws spur skilful and creative play opposed to prioritising a physical approach that tends to be an element in five-a-side.
Famous professional Football players like Messi, Ronaldo and Neymar and even the greats Maradona & Pele are self-confessed Futsal players during their childhood.
