Fourth class had a great outing to the sports complex in Cappamore sports centre on Thursday 24th of October. They were taking part in a futsall competition. This is an indoor version of soccer. They had a boys and a girls team and everyone really enjoyed the morning.
Futsal is the official FIFA version of the indoor 5 a side football. It is played between two teams of five players, one of whom is the goalkeeper and up to seven substitutes per team may be used.
Unlike some other forms of indoor football, the game is played on a hard court surface delimited by lines; walls or boards are not used. Futsal is also played with a smaller ball with less bounce than a regulation football.
