Played futsal before or a keen footballer wanting to try a different version of the game? Futsal offers players an opportunity to represent the university in a BUCS league, as well as competitions, in a fast-paced 5v5 format. We compete in the Southern Premier which we consistently perform well in. The Women's Futsal team became unbeaten champions in 2019/20 and became champions once again in 2021/22.

We are an extremely social club, meeting every Wednesday during term time after fixtures. We run themed socials every week beginning in town or on campus before going to SCORE, a night run by the SU for all sports teams.
The women's team also go abroad on tour every year for a week during the Easter Holidays. Previously we have been to Croatia, Salou and Rimini. The tour will be organised by the social sec's - it is not something you will want to miss!
