Football Queensland Futsal is the state’s official provider of Futsal, the five-a-side indoor version of football governed worldwide by FIFA and in Australia by FFA.
Futsal is played between two teams of five players each, including one goalkeeper, with unlimited substitutions permitted. The confined space, hard court surface and smaller ball create an emphasis on improvisation, creativity and technique.
Football Queensland is committed to the continued development of Futsal by establishing clubs and regions throughout Queensland as well as providing a structured and recognised learning environment for coaches and referees.
Football Queensland Futsal administers the SEQ Futsal Premier League, the state’s premier futsal competition, as well as FQ Futsal State Titles, which is the pathway to the FFA Futsal National Championships.
Whether playing socially, competitively or to develop your skills, futsal is a fun and healthy way to enjoy the world game.
Football Queensland has further strengthened its engagement opportunities with schools in 2021 through the launch of an updated Start Futsal program for Queensland schools.
Start Futsal is an introductory program which brings FQ and schools together to deliver high-quality participation experiences in fun and educational environments.
With an emphasis on learning and participation, the program delivers the game’s core basic skills and match play principles to children aged 8 to 14. Start Futsal program is designed to initially be delivered over a four-week period by FQ’s endorsed and qualified coaches.
