Indoor Soccer is known as Futbol Rápido (Fast Soccer) in México. Why fast? The main reason is that the ball leaves the pitch less often, which means that the game is indeed a lot faster than regular soccer. Also, because of reduced dimensions, the ball and the players must move around more quickly in order to defeat the defence. The ball itself is not faster, but the gameplay is -- Threner 07:04, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Am I the only one who finds it amusing that the photograph illustrating the article indoor soccer is outdoors? I know it's basically an indoor soccer arena without the roof over it (same dimensions/rules/etc.), but it's still somehow amusing. -- Delirium 03:08, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
I posted the photo, and actually it cracks me up also. Indoor soccer was created as a response to winter in northern countries. However, it came up as a very fun to play sport. In sourthern countries, it makes no sense to go through the additional expense of building a roof (albeit going for the ball after someone kicked it really hard is a pain). Also, it is easy to get together 5 friends for a friendly or a tournament than getting 15 for a soccer game :D -- Threner 18:56, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
The Versus cable television channel was formerly the Outdoor Life Network. Under that name, their primary shows were hockey (an indoor sport) and arena (i.e., indoor) football. WHPratt ( talk) 14:14, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
I once again removed the CMISL from the proposed leagues section. I can find no evidence of such an organiztion. If such evidence exists, please place it on this page before adding the CMISL back. KitHutch 13:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
In Brazil, indoor soccer is really the futsal called by FIFA, however Futebol Society is not indoor soccer at all. Futebol Society is played in a bigger field than indoor soccer and the ball is also bigger than indoor soccer but a bit smaller than outdoor field soccer.

As a Brit, I understand the term "six-a-side" to mean more or less five-a-side with an extra player on each team. In particular that means there are touchlines, throw-ins, corners etc., at least when played outdoors. What source suggests "six-a-side" means arena soccer?

Obviously not the main focus of this article, but I don't find it to be true (as of 2019, at least) that outdoor lacrosse is all that much more popular in the U.S. than indoor lacrosse. Certainly this is not at all true at the professional level, where there are currently two competing indoor leagues, the "Major" and "Premier" leagues but only one outdoor league, the small and struggling National Lacrosse League. Yes, some of the teams in the MLL are in Canada, but far more are in the U.S. Amateur indoor lacrosse is less common in the U.S. than the outdoor version is, but the gap seems to be narrowing consistently. 2600:1004:B105:B200:CC8C:8FB7:21C8:1D8C ( talk) 02:06, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
I have just recently added my own research to the article. In simple terms, I updated a few sections that were missing information including the main space, around the world, and rules. I also added two new sections under rules including goalkeeper and accumulated fouls. Finally I added three images to show the different surfaces indoor soccer is played on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abbynlew ( talk • contribs) 05:11, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
Street soccer is a game that young people who live in cities play, often in an unused alley. My father played it in a Glasgow suburb when he was growing up. He said that indoor soccer has at least one notable feature that is the same: You are allowed to pass by bouncing the ball off the alley wall. As I do not know this myself, I can't add it to the main article. P.S. After WWII my father went to Harvard on the G.I. Bill. He went to the football coach (American) and offered to kick field goals. the coach turned him down. This was way before soccer-style field goal kickers became "in". 143.43.144.97 ( talk) 18:16, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
