Scottish Futsal League
Futsal in Scotland in conjunction with the Scottish Football Association (SFA) and Scottish Amateur Football Association (SAFA) started Scotland's first league in Perth in 1997. Scotland has four regional leagues in Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow & Perth. From the 2017/18 season onwards, the top placed sides in each of the four regional leagues qualify for the Super League Playoffs, and compete for entry into the following season's Scottish Futsal Super League.
Futsal has a long history, having been invented in South America as long ago as the 1930s. Now the game is set to develop in Scotland and the SFA was the first of the four British associations to give official recognition to this five-a-side version of football. Futsal is an internationally recognised sport, governed by FIFA and UEFA.
