Island Soccer League
Posted: Wed Aug 06, 2008 3:24 am
So I was watching Fox Soccer Channel last weekend and saw the Island Soccer League All-Star Game.
The league is in Bermuda. David Bascombe is the founder and Commissioner. Basically, it's a hybrid of futsal and indoor soccer. Field looks like about 170-200', with all the interior linings like indoor soccer, but with boundaries lines (and kick-ins instead of throw-ins like futsal).
Pretty high scoring game. They have 8 teams playing a house league for now, but they hope to expand to have teams on each of the islands as they grow.

Their website should be updated more, but I thought it was an entertaining version of soccer that perhaps could take off in the U.S. in some markets.
