Futsal is a rapidly growing sport in Oceania. Solomon Islands has been a powerhouse in the region over the past decade with its men’s team representing OFC at the 2021 FIFA Futsal World Cup™ in Lithuania. In New Zealand the game is growing exponentially, most recently with success at the OFC Men’s Nations Cup and a place at the 2024 FIFA Futsal World Cup™ in Uzbekistan.
The inaugural FIFA Women’s Futsal World Cup™ will be hosted by the Philippines in 2025 and OFC will stage its first ever OFC Women’s Futsal Nations Cup in the Solomon Islands in August 2024.
