Futsal General Rules

-Teams may call one one-minute timeout per half (when in possession of ball, ball out of play).

-There is no overtime, injury time or stoppage time.

-Teams are comprised of four outfield players and one goalkeeper.

-The goalkeeper must wear a different color jersey than the outfield players.

-There is no offsides in futsal.

Restarts

-Kickoffs: are indirect. The ball must be played forward first. Tapped balls are not in play – the ball must move forward.

-Kickins: are indirect. The ball must be placed on or no more than 10 inches behind the line and the kick must be taken within 4 seconds. The kicker's non-kicking foot must be out of bounds or on the line. (A kickin that goes directly in the opposing goal is a goal clearance for the opposing team. A kickin that goes directly in the defensive goal is a corner kick of the opposing team.)

-Goal Clearances: are taken when the ball wholly crosses the goal line after being touched last by the attacking team. The goalkeeper must use his hands to roll, bounce or throw the ball from anywhere inside the penalty area to outside the penalty area.

-Corner Kicks: are direct. The ball must be placed directly on the corner spot and the kick must be taken within 4 seconds.

-Free Kicks: may be indirect or direct. The ball must be stopped completely before the kick may be taken.

-Penalty Kicks: are taken from the penalty spot 20 feet from goal and must be shot at goal by a clearly identified kicker. Defenders may not be nearer to the ball than 16 feet and must be behind an imaginary line running from touchline to touchline even with the penalty spot.

-Distance: For all of the above, except goal clearances, opponents may not be closer to the ball than 16 feet.

-Ceiling: If the ball hits the ceiling or other object, the team that did not touch the ball last restarts play with a kickin from the nearest point on the touchline.

The Goalkeeper

-Must wear a different color shirt.

-May receive a kickin directly.

-May kick the ball directly over the half-way line.

-May score directly with his feet during the run of play.

-May not punt or drop-kick the ball. (Ball must settle to the ground or be t-touched first, no air under the ball when kicked.)

-May not possess the ball for more than four seconds in her own half.

-May throw the ball directly across the half-way line. A ball thrown directly into the opposing goal results in a goal clearance for the opposing team.

-May only touch/receive the ball once per team possession.
