Your Ultimate Guide to Futsal Balls

Futsal is a dynamic indoor football game, five players per team, on a compact court. It uses a low-bounce ball and specialized goals, emphasizing rapid passing, dribbling, and confined-space scoring.

This guide helps you choose the right futsal ball size based on age and explains key differences from standard footballs.

Futsal Balls vs. Footballs: Key Differences

Futsal and football balls, while sharing game principles, have distinct characteristics.

• Ball Size: Futsal balls are smaller; senior futsal uses a size 4 (62-64cm circumference) compared to a senior football's size 5 (68-70cm).

• Weight: Futsal balls (400-440g) are often as heavy or heavier than size 5 footballs (410-450g), aiding close control and precision indoors.

• Bounce: Futsal balls have a reduced bounce due to their weight and size, facilitating better control and keeping the ball grounded on the smaller indoor pitch.
