Bluffton University Men's Soccer Camps will host a futsal tournament on January 21, 2023.
Registration is open for all high school and high school age club teams.
The game of futsal is a fast paced 4v4 + keepers game that occurs on a hard surface, requiring technical ball mastery and allowing for spectacular tricks. It is one of three officially recognized FIFA games along with soccer and beach soccer - each with their own World Cup.
