My kids all do a lot of futsal. Most futsal goalies don't use gloves, and if they do, futsal goalie gloves have no finger holes.

I think the logic is explained nicely here:

Does he wear gloves? If so, his regular soccer keeper gloves. My sons had a broken finger and currently has a sprained finger so I feel like he should wear gloves since the ball is so hard and they kick from up close. But last winter I noticed the coach didn’t have the kids wear them.


Yes, he typically wears gloves in futsal. He owns them and puts them on himself (ie, the coach has nothing to do with it...it's his choice).

You can play futsal with gloves, just don't use the ones with expensive latex that will tear quickly. There are goalkeeper gloves for hard surfaces, not as sticky, but more durable.
