Part in every life of individual is to play sports of any kind, it depends on the taste or preferences of a person on what type of game would he play. Basketball, volleyball, badminton, soccer, table tennis, or any indoor or outdoor games or activities in which there's an involvement of physical movement or exertion whereas an individual or by team competes each other for entertainment or other purposes are what we call sports. One best example of sport is futsal, it is a modified form of soccer with five players typically played indoor or in a large closed room or in a field.
Futsal came from the word Spanish fútbol sala or fútbol de salón and from Portuguese futebol de salão which was commonly translated as "indoor football". Literally, its translation is "hall or lounge football". Now, during its second world championships which was held in Madrid last 1985, the Spanish name fútbol sala was used. This sport is played by two teams with five players each, one of whom is the goalkeeper.
There are unlimited substitution that is permitted but unlike with the other kind of indoor football, this game is played on hard court fixed with lines,there are no walls to bounce the ball off, harder, low bounce ball. A kick-off is a signal that the game should start; the same signal can also be used after a goal had been scored but unlike regular football, futsal has no offside rules. The attackers can go closer to the goal unlike the traditional football.
Futsal can be played by people of any age, what it requires is the skill and capabilities to play it and most especially the heart that is committed and passionate so that it can be used as a key to get the gold, win or lose, the important it builds comradeship, unity and most importantly, enjoyment among the players.

Before the pandemic cancels or closes the schools, this sport is actually our lesson in our physical education class. Our prof is a coach with a winning team players. He told us that we are about to do what a player, referee, coach are doing and after that we will fight against his players. If we will win the game then we will no longer have our finals. Even though we wanted to talk to his players to let us win the game, he also will gave consequences to his players if they lose the game. Unfortunately, because of the pandemic we didn't had the chance to play that sport and we're also looking forward to play soccer after we played futsal.
I don't know if you're familiar with this sport but I just learned this one when I entered my school when there's a wide sportsfests. All the campuses of our school will compete against each other and those who win will compete to regional level competition and to national level to international. I saw how they have their in house training, the efforts, the level of their training and I have watched the regional level competition when it was held in our school. I saw many schools including my dream school. That's so fun.
I hope you learned from this sport!
