How Long Does an Indoor Soccer Match Last?

In this clip we are going to talk about the duration of the game. The game starts out with your team showing up and you guys get a nice little five minute warm-up, stretch out, get ready and then you play two twenty-five minute halves with another five minute interval break in between halves. A lot of indoor facilities like to work in an hour to hour and fifteen minute schedule per game. It kind of keeps things going. The reason why it's so structured in the fact that 25 minutes, 5 minutes, 25 minutes and 5 minutes in between, add that up and it's one hour. It gives you some flexibility if you decide to go over the 15 minutes, whether a team is here on time or not, but they usually like to get things started right when the time of the game is scheduled and they usually like to end it right when the time of the game is scheduled. There is a running clock the whole time. They don't stop the clock like they do in indoor, after goals or after red cards or anything like that. It's a running clock the whole time and it usually lasts about an hour of duration with warm-up, two halves and a half-time.
