Futsal in Iran
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Futsal in Iran is conducted under the aegis of the Futsal Commission of the Islamic Republic of Iran Football Federation. Futsal is a popular and growing sport in the country.
Iran has a strong national futsal team, which has won the Asian Futsal Championship for seven times, as well as a nationwide Super Futsal League.
Futsal teams in Iran partly enjoy their success due to the style of soccer played outside, Gol Koochik. This is the kind of soccer most Iranians enjoy playing. Great dribbling skills are needed and players need to learn to maneuver the ball quickly.
