Canada Soccer has confirmed the 2025 rosters for the 16 amateur teams competing at this year’s Futsal Canadian Championship in Regina, Saskatchewan. In all, there are 212 registered players across the 16 teams participating in the two divisions from 10 to 13 April this month.

All 32 matches will be played at the REAL District, Regina’s premier facility equipped with modern amenities and designed to host major sporting events. There will be eight matches each day with half the matches played at the Brandt Centre and the other half played next door at the Brunswick Steel Arena. All four medal matches on the last day will be played at the Brandt Centre, including the men’s Final at 12.00 (noon) and the women’s Final at 14.00.

In the Men’s Futsal Canadian Championship, the eight qualified teams are: FC Brazil Vancouver; Edmonton Rangers FC; Yorkton United FC; Winnipeg Pioneers FC; Whitehorse Yukon Selects FC; Rankin FC; Atlético Gatineau; and two-time defending champions 9 de Octubre FC Toronto.

In the Women’s Futsal Canadian Championship, the eight qualified teams are: Native Indian FA Pacific FC; Calgary Impero FC; Saskatoon SK Impact FC; Winnipeg 1v1 Futbol Dreams; Whitehorse Yukon Selects FC; Iqualuit Prospects; Windsor Caboto SC; and Underdogs FC Bourassa.

Futsal is an exciting and fast-paced sport played indoors on a small court with five players to each side. It features a sport-specific ball that does not bounce the same way as a traditional football bounces on grass or turf and the sport features its own unique Futsal Laws of the Game which differ from traditional football. Each match features two 20-minute halves with the clock stopped each time the match is interrupted as well as rolling substitutions so that players can come in and out of the match.

At the elite club level, Canada Soccer supports domestic competition through the annual Futsal Canadian Championship for men and women. Canada Soccer launched the Men’s Futsal Canadian Championship in 2015 and the Women’s Futsal Canadian Championship in 2023.
