GENERAL INFORMATION

  • What is Futsal?

Futsal is an in-house program of BWSA.  All games are played in a school district gym against other Baldwin Whitehall teams. Futsal is a variant of soccer played indoors on a basketball court, with two teams of five players each, including a goalkeeper (except for U7, which is without a goalkeeper). It uses a smaller, heavier, low bounce ball and is recognized by FIFA as the official indoor soccer game.

  • What does my child need to play?
    Your child must wear shin guards INSIDE their socks to every practice and game.  Appropriately sized soccer socks can be purchased at a sporting goods store or online.
