Singapore’s first mixed gender futsal tournament kicks off Oct 26, with rules set to 'protect female players'

When we first started organizing the women’s five-a-side division in 2011, we were already considering doing a mixed gender idea, but the strategy was put on hold. & nbsp,

In an effort to increase our offerings, we are currently revisiting this strategy. However, I had also noticed that following a recent tournament, mixed teams were currently playing lightly with one another.

He continued,” This is a good chance to arrange for them to play together.”

Additionally, we hope that this group offers players the opportunity to compete in a less anxious setting. According to him, the focus is on playing sports and having fun with people of the opposite sex who are either related to them or are their colleagues and associates. & nbsp,

Putting together teams for a group” that is so field and doesn’t give cash prizes” was difficult, according to Rasvinder. & nbsp,

Also, it was initially expected of all players to wear non-studded shoes to ensure their own safety, which not everyone liked. & nbsp,

When a person wears studded shoes, they run the higher risk of injuring people due to the fast( rate of play ) on the smaller ball. Also on these fields, they are accustomed to playing with adorned shoes, according to Rasvinder. & nbsp,

The company agreed to permit studded clothing for this season after teams expressed interest, but he added that players should think about switching to the latter option in the future.
