Futsal Rules

  • 01
    Teams of 5 — 5 players per side including the goalkeeper. Rolling substitutions allowed at any time — unlimited throughout the match.
  • 02
    Two Halves of 20 Minutes — Standard format is 2 × 20-minute halves with a 5-minute half-time break. Overtime and penalty shootouts for knockout matches.
  • 03
    No Slide Tackles — Slide tackles are prohibited in futsal — the pitch is too small and the risk of injury too high. Upright challenges only.
  • 04
    Kick-ins Instead of Throw-ins — When the ball goes out over the sideline, it's restarted with a kick-in (not a throw-in). The ball must be stationary at the line.
  • 05
    No Offside Rule — Unlike outdoor football, there is no offside in futsal. Use the full width and depth of the pitch without restriction.
  • 06
    Goalkeeper Restrictions — Goalkeeper cannot receive a back-pass kicked by a teammate — must be headed or chested. Distributes by hand from inside own half.
  • 07
    Accumulated Fouls — After 5 accumulated team fouls in a half, all subsequent fouls result in a direct free kick from the second penalty spot (no wall allowed).

Pro Tips

Use the Walls Strategically

Unlike outdoor football, walls are in play. A well-timed wall pass eliminates defenders and creates clean shooting lanes.

Quick Passing Beats Dribbling

Futsal rewards combination play over individual skill. Short, fast passes in triangles overwhelm defenders who can't track the movement.
