U10-12-14(COED) INDOOR Rules:

5 v 5 with Goalkeepers (OR AS MODIFIED EACH SEASON BY THE COORDINATORS). Sometimes, we may shift to full-field play instead of third or half field.   This will be similar to FUTSAL

BASIC RULES OF FUTSAL

5 players versus 5 players, one of which will be a Goalkeeper. It is expected that each player will have to take a turn being Goalkeeper. 

  • Subs on the fly, like hockey

  • No offsides

  • No goalkeeper punts, ball must stay below head height, otherwise possession and a free kick will be awarded to the opposing team

  • No slide tackles, players must not go to ground to steal possession back

  • No Throw-ins from the sidelines. Instead ball is placed on ground and passed in to a teammate with the foot

  • Free kicks and corners the opposing team has to be minimum of 5 yards away from the ball

  • With a penalty kick, all players behind the ball except for the penalty kicker
