Futsal
fut·sal - noun
is an indoor version of football (soccer). Its name is derived from the Portuguese futebol de salao and the Spanish Futbol sala/de salon, which can be translated as ·indoor football'. It is played between two teams of five players, one of whom is goalkeeper. In addition, each team may have a number of substitutes. Unlike some forms of indoor football, the field is delimited by lines, not nets or boards that players can use to redirect the ball. Futsal is played with a #3 or #4 ball, which is slightly heavier and smaller than the #5 ball used in football.

Testimonials
I will never forget the opportunity [Maccabi USA/Sports for Israel] gave me through the Maccabiah Games to participate in a world-class event early in my career. And the excitement of meeting Jewish athletes from around the world and sharing with them the universal spirit of sports competition was a matchless experience.
