Men’s teams
The Men's 1st team competes in the BUCS Scottish 1A league and has won it multiple times. The 1st team also plays in the Scottish Super League (the highest futsal league in Scotland), which gives the club an opportunity to perform on the highest platform in the nation and possibly qualify for the UEFA Futsal Champions League.

Women’s teams

The Women’s 2nd team competes in the BUCS Scottish 1A and BUCS National Trophy. Both teams helped raise awareness for the “Football v Homophobia” campaign, adding to the very successful 2022/23 season of both Women’s teams. Both women’s teams train twice a week and play games on weekends.
Recreational team
A mixed-gender team that plays in Edinburgh University’s intramural 5s league. As a member of the futsal club’s recreational team, you will be coached by current Scottish Super League players to experience this sport in a more “professional” way and compete weekly against other teams in the university. Players who perform and improve consistently will have the chance to be promoted to our men’s and women’s BUCS teams.
