Essential DYA Futsal Rules

Futsal is the 5-a-side indoor version of soccer played with a low-bounce ball, designed to encourage quick passing and high-touch possession.

Game Format & Time

Detail Rule
Players 5v5 (4 field players + 1 goalkeeper).
Rosters Maximum 7 players per team to maximize playing time.

Key Rules

  • 4-Second Rule: Restarts (kick-ins, corner kicks, free kicks) must be executed within four (4) seconds.
  • Accumulated Fouls: After a team reaches five (5) direct free-kick fouls in a half, the next direct free-kick foul results in a penalty-style shot.

Mandatory Equipment & Safety

For the safety of all players and the integrity of the playing surface, the following equipment rules are strictly enforced:

  • Footwear: Only flat-soled indoor soccer shoes are permitted. No outdoor cleats allowed.
  • Protection: Shin guards are mandatory and must be worn under socks for all sessions (clinics and games).
  • Ball Size: U8 teams use a Size 3 Futsal ball; 9+ teams use a Size 4 Futsal ball.

Information for Parents & Guardians

We strive to create a positive and safe environment for all players and staff.

Code of Conduct

We expect positive conduct from everyone involved. Parents are encouraged to cheer, but please refrain from coaching from the sideline. This allows the players to focus on the technical training provided by the coaches and encourages them to make independent decisions. League staff will enforce a strict sportsmanship policy.

Misconduct & Suspension

Any player or coach receiving a Red Card and ejected from a game will face a minimum one (1) game suspension for the next scheduled match.
