Futsal or indoor soccer became popular in the Netherlands in the 1960s when Dutch marines took home the game they’d watched and enjoyed abroad. Initially, they played in large empty sheds or factory floors. It took another decade before the first official Royal Dutch Football Association competition was created. It was Scagha ’66 from the northern village of Schagen who clinched the first national title. Futsal rapidly gained popularity in the Netherlands, particularly after 1989, when the country hosted the first ever FIFA Futsal World Cup. The Dutch national team finished in second position after being beaten by Brazil 2–1 in the final, their best result to date.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Netherlands – Futsal )〕 The first competitions in the Netherlands were staged at the local level before spreading to regional and district competitions.
