Futsal is a variant of soccer, mainly played indoors and is played between two teams of 5 players. The sport is played worldwide and is the only form of indoor soccer recognized by FIFA. The game is also played with a slightly smaller ball than soccer’s (size 4). The sport places more emphasis on ball control, passing, technique, and dribbling due to the smaller parameters of the game. Many professional soccer players played futsal when growing up. Below are some comparisons to soccer’s rules & regulations.

PPPGA Tour 2026 - Encore @ Starland
Every chaotic tour deserves a homecoming, and on September 12, the PPPGA Tour returns to Starland Sportsplex for its final stand.
Doors open at 6 PM, music at 7 PM, mini golf included, and the anarchy comes full circle. This encore show isn’t about wrapping things up neatly—it’s about squeezing every last ounce of joy out of the experiment.
Closing out the tour are Tommy Ready, Junk Punk, and Sean Griffin, delivering a finale that feels equal parts celebration and controlled derailment. If you missed earlier stops, this is your redemption arc. If you’ve been riding the tour all summer, this is the victory lap. Punk rock, mini golf, satire turned up to eleven. Lineup subject to change.
TICKET REFUNDS MUST BE REQUESTED 10 DAYS IN ADVANCE
