Gujarat is the 1st state to start State Futsal Club Championship to create awareness about this new form of football and make it more popular. 

Futsal is an exciting and fast-paced indoor sport that is played across the world and is recognised by FIFA. It is a 5 vs 5 small-sided game, played with a smaller, low-bounce futsal ball and on smooth surfaces with touchlines. It is a great sport to develop skills as it demands quick thinking and reflexes, creative dribbling and accurate passing of the ball.

GSFA is planning more such events in future, like baby league, sub junior league, junior league and  senior league to name a few. DeshGujarat
