Next game keeps count of who sat: whoever was on the bench most in this chart sits least in the next one.

How it works

This futsal lineup maker plans your outfield changes: four players on court for every shift, a fixo, two alas and a pivot, with bench time shared evenly. Your goalkeeper stays in goal, off the chart.

Make the lineup

Replace the sample names with your outfield players, one per line, and leave your keeper off. Set how many shifts you use across two halves, then print the chart for the bench. Each column is the four who go on together.

How the bench is shared

Four play, the rest wait. Eight players make two full units, so everyone plays every other shift and nobody sits twice running. With ten over eight shifts there are 48 bench turns: eight players sit five times and two sit four. The fair rotation also moves players between back, wings and front.

Questions and answers

Where is the goalkeeper?

Not on the chart. Futsal is five a side, one of them the goalkeeper, who usually plays the whole half. Type only outfield players; if two keepers split the game, write the change at half time.

How do substitutions work in futsal?

They are unlimited and made on the fly, even while the ball is in play, and the player coming off must leave the court before the substitute goes on. A match sheet can name up to nine substitutes.

Are fixo, ala and pivot fixed spots?

No. The laws name only the goalkeeper, and outfield players switch roles freely during play. The chart names the four usual roles so each player knows where to start, and moves them around so everyone tries each one.

How this list was compiled

Five a side, one of them the goalkeeper; up to nine substitutes, substitutions unlimited and on the fly, the player coming off leaving the court first; two periods of 20 minutes with the clock stopped at dead balls (some leagues 25 minutes running); the laws name no position but the goalkeeper, and the usual roles of fixo (defender), two alas (wingers) and pivot (forward), with outfield players free to switch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futsal (read 2026-09-24), sections Rules and Positions. The goalkeeper is left out of this chart on purpose (the page says why). The short codes are this site's. Licence: own work
