Futsal is a fast-paced, skill-focused version of football played indoors on a smaller court with five players per side. The game emphasises quick thinking, close ball control, and sharp passing, making every second on the court intense and exciting. With a smaller, heavier ball and no walls, it’s a true test of technique and teamwork.

 

Our Men's Futsal team welcomes players of all abilities — from those who’ve played football all their lives to newcomers eager to learn. It’s a fantastic way to improve your fitness, sharpen your skills, and be part of a friendly, competitive squad. We train regularly, compete in student tournaments, and always have plenty of fun off the court too! Join us and experience a sport that’s fast, fun, and full of community spirit.

About Us

LJMU Futsal Club is entering its fourth year, and with the momentum we've built so far, we're more ambitious than ever. This year, we’re expanding to three teams, each made up of nine dedicated players. But beyond the game itself, we’re a close-knit group of students who come together not just for the sport, but for the friendships, memories, and community we create along the way. Futsal is one of the fastest-growing sports in the UK, and it’s easy to see why. Played indoors with smaller teams and a faster pace, it keeps every player involved from start to finish. Whether you're a footballer looking to sharpen your skills or someone completely new to the game, futsal is a thrilling way to stay active, challenge yourself, and get stuck into university life.

Key Information

Training sessions take place on Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons, with matches held on Sundays for teams that have fixtures scheduled. Social events happen weekly on Wednesday nights and are a big part of what makes our club so enjoyable. These are great opportunities to relax, meet new people, and celebrate the week together—whether you’re new to LJMU or returning for another season.

Why Us?

Joining LJMU Futsal means stepping into a sport that’s fast, competitive, and full of energy. Every match is an opportunity to develop your skills, stay active, and experience the buzz of team competition. But it’s not just about what happens on the court. Our club is built on connection and shared experience—whether that’s at training, on matchdays, or during our weekly socials. You don’t need years of experience to get involved. In fact, many of our members joined having never played futsal before, and quickly found themselves part of a supportive environment where they could grow and have fun. If you’re looking to make lasting friendships, push yourself in a new sport, and truly immerse yourself in student life, this is the place to be. This year promises to be our biggest and best yet—and we want you to be part of it.

Committee

Each sports club is led by a student committee responsible for running the club, organising activities, and representing members. The committee is chaired by the Club Captain, with support from other elected roles.
