Sharpen your game over winter

Players around the globe play indoors to refine and maintain their skills and touch, and ABSC’s winter program helps players to sharpen foot skills, improve game decision-making ability, and stay fit during the off-season. Play is Saturday or Sunday: no weekday practice.

Season Dates: January 6th- Feb 25th, 2024

WHAT IS FUTSAL?

Futsal is FIFA’s official scaled-down version of outdoor soccer played indoors.

Small-sided games (5v5) are played with a smaller, low-bounce ball that forces players to use their skill rather than the ball’s bounce for propulsion.

Played with touchline boundaries, there are no walls in play.

Futsal Game Schedule will be posted on our website under the schedule in December

Team Formation: Our Futsal Program is team-based. To organize a team, please ask friends, classmates and/or your current teammates to come up with a roster of 6-8 players and a team name. Each player will then register/pay individually, requesting the team by name.
Players without a pre-organized team are encouraged to register. ABSC will add them to teams needing players, but placement is based on roster availability.
