"The PFL is committed to offering quality entertainment at an affordable price for any family or company budget," PFL president Michael Hitchcock said. "Our first event featuring FC Barcelona provides a thrilling international tournament field including some of the top futsal players from Europe, the United States and Mexico. The PFL International Challenge powered by USA Futsal is a great opportunity for soccer and futsal fans to see why futsal is the fastest growing sport in the world."
A five-a-side derivative of soccer, futsal is played on a hard court, with out-of-bounds lines rather than the walls associated with American indoor soccer. A weighted ball reduces bounce to produce a vibrant, deft style that highlights individual flair and controlled passing.
The PFL launched in January 2015 and though league play doesn't begin until November 2016, the PFL will hold several international futsal events in the next 18 months.
The PFL International Challenge powered by USA Futsal will feature the debut of the official Mitre PFL match ball, which features the distinct PFL color pattern crafted by the league's first corporate partner.
