United States Futsal has been governing the sport of futsal in the United States since 1981, and since its founding in 1980 the Federation has grown to over 40,000 members. The USFF was founded to promote the sport and provide standards for the futsal state associations. Futsal is the international form of indoor soccer approved by FIFA, and the term FUTSAL was first created by Alexander Para for the then U.S. Minisoccer Federation. The new word FUTSAL was adopted by U.S. Futsal in 1987, and the organization changed its corporate name within the state of California. United States Futsal is a member of U.S. Soccer, and the name FUTSAL was trademarked in the United States Patent and Trademark Office in 1989 (PTO Serial # 73832190, Registration # 1645572).
Participating teams in national competition range from under twelve (U-12) to senior level play for both men and women, and there is a National Futsal Championship held each year to determine the best teams in the country at various age levels. The host state for the National Championship is rotated regularly so that different regions of the United States can be equally represented. Counting all state associations, national associations, and leagues, there are approximately 112,000 people participating in this sport in the United States, and most of the present membership is comprised of youth (90%).
In May 1986, the 1.27 million-member Boys and Girls Club of America adopted futsal as an “Olympic Focus Sport” and began introducing the game to its 1,100 affiliated clubs throughout the United States. In June 1986, the 350,000-member American Youth Soccer Association became an associate member for the purpose of learning more about the game. The Federation is also working to affiliate with the YMCA, NCAA, National High School Association of America, and the National Junior College Association. The program’s international competition activities include events for the National Seniors Team such as the Pan-American Games, Confederation events, Pacific Cup, North American Cup, and World Cup competition.
