About

Overview:

Futsal Ballarat is the only Football Victoria (FV) and Football Australia (FA) affiliated futsal organisation in the Ballarat region. Established in 2009 at the Ballarat Badminton Centre, the club began with just four children training weekly. In 2014, we transitioned to the Ballarat East Recreation Centre to support our growing numbers and expanded programs.

In 2025, Futsal Ballarat continues to thrive, with over 1,200 players participating weekly in our competitions and training programs—ranging in age from 3 years old through to adults. This makes us one of the largest futsal programs in Victoria.

In addition to our weekly social and junior competitions, Futsal Ballarat runs a representative program, where selected players compete at Regional, State, and National levels. This program has produced outstanding results, with numerous championship wins at all levels.

Mission:

• To promote the sport of futsal and provide inclusive opportunities for participation across all levels of the community.

• To develop players and coaches by focusing on correct techniques, ball mastery, and tactical understanding, ensuring enjoyment and progress at both social and competitive levels.

• To remain at the forefront of futsal development and share the latest knowledge, methods, and opportunities with our members.

Affiliation:

Futsal Ballarat is officially affiliated with Football Victoria, Football Australia (FA), and FIFA. As a recognised Football Victoria club, we adhere to all FA rules, regulations, and codes of conduct.

This affiliation gives our players a clear development pathway—from local futsal participation through to representing Victoria at the FA Futsal National Championships. Senior players also have the opportunity to compete in the National Futsal League, the F-League.
