How many people play futsal in Canada?
How many people have actually watched futsal in Canada?

I've seen it once and that was because it was on TV in Hong Kong. I've never played it either

I don't think enough people know about it

It's indoor football played on a small pitch. It has touch lines, and I believe it's a kick in if it goes out of bounds. The goals are smaller, and they use a heavier ball.

I think the number of field players depends on the size of the pitch.

I attended a friendly futsal match last christmas in Montreal and I really enjoyed the match. The Ottawa Wizards played the Canadian national team in a arena beside the Olympic stadium. I personally would love to see more futsal played in Canada.
