About Us
Discover the fast-paced, skillful world of futsal. Our club welcomes complete beginners to seasoned players looking to take your game to the next level.
Welcome to the University of Glasgow Futsal Club!
Futsal is the fast-paced, five-a-side version of football, played indoors on a hard court. We use a smaller and heavier ball so it’s all about quick feet, close control and smart passing. It is a brilliant way to sharpen your skills, whether you’ve played football for years or are picking up a ball for the first time.
Training
We train every Wednesday on the Hillhead High school court, split into two blocks:
- Recreational session: Relaxed, friendly and open to all abilities. Perfect if you’re new to futsal or just want a fun game. Even if you are in the advanced group you can come.
- Advanced session: A more intense, tactical session for experienced players looking to push their game further. Invitation only, if you come to recreational and show improvement you can be allowed to stay for the advanced session that day.
Matches
We’re not part of a league just yet, but we’re working on it! In the meantime, we’ll be arranging friendlies against other unis, so there are chances to get competitive game time.
Socials
Futsal isn’t just about what happens on the court. We run regular socials that are open to everyone, that is members, friends and anyone curious about the club. It’s a great way to meet new people and become part of the community. We have pub socials every other week after training to see games and chat.
Women’s Futsal
We’re keen to build a women’s team and would love more female players to join us! No experience is needed, just come along to a Wednesday session, give it a go and help us grow women’s futsal at Glasgow. If you’re interested or have any questions, get in touch with us.
Insurance
It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the appropriate insurance cover for any activity you take part in. Upon joining, please check the level of insurance cover we, as a club, provide to you.
GUSA recommends that all students playing high risk sport, go abroad to compete/train, or are playing in governing body leagues, may want to consider/need to take out personal liability insurance, or join the sports governing body to be covered. Some insurance providers also offer specialist sports cover.
