The most popular offshoot of classical football is the so-called futsal. It is also called mini-football. Its differences are that the game is held in a special room with changed rules and, accordingly, other equipment. Differences have touched the ball, especially for this sport create special products that have a smaller size.
What is the product?
This product has a smaller size and sometimes has a greater weight. Because of these characteristics, it does not fly well into the air. The ball uses a special foam that extinguishes the energy generated when landing, so it bounces poorly from the surface. For mini-football, these qualities are very important.
Futsal balls are designed to be used in dry rooms. They can be used in special open areas only in dry weather. Each product is divided into two types:
- professional;
- amateur.
Everyone will understand that the professional option has improved characteristics and, of course, more cost. It was created in accordance with the requirements of football federations. It can be used in competitions of any level. Amateur option almost always meets the requirements, but there may be deviations in any parameters, for example, weight or size. With it, beginners can start training and learn more about mini-football.
How does the ball behave when playing?
During the game, futsal balls behave differently (compared to the classic version), so players developed a new style of play. Transfers with such a product are almost always carried out in a low way. The ball is very hard to lift into the air, it never bounces when landing. During the game, you need to be extremely careful, since the product has a large enough weight, and the lack of "jumping" can seriously harm a person if hit in the head.
It is very important to use equipment with this product. Children should have special protection. Due to the small size of the room, fewer players (4 players and 1 goalkeeper per team) can play at the same time. Novice athletes need to get used to the ball and its features for a long time.
Buying the ball
Choosing this product is an easy task. It is only necessary to determine in what conditions the ball will be used. For amateur games, it can be purchased at any sports store. For professional activities, you will need to look for specialized football stores, which sell almost all futsal equipment.
