Spring Programs
United DFC Spring 2023 Program Descriptions
Futsal
Fustal is the FIFA-recognised form of small-sided indoor football (the word is a contraction of the Spanish 'fútbolsala'). It is played between two teams who each have five players on the pitch at any one time, with rolling substitutes and a smaller ball than soccer which is harder and less bouncy. It is a global, renowned sport which is akin to street soccer.
This program is free to our UDFC players. You must have been registered in our Winter programs to participate.
