In Colombia, indoor football, known as “futbol cinco,” has become a lucrative opportunity for former professional players. The discipline involves ten players, five per team, and is played on synthetic turfs. These turfs attract a diverse audience from various social classes, creating a true democracy on the field. Former professionals, like Lucas Jaramillo, have found success by investing in the futbol cinco business, providing a popular and accessible way for football enthusiasts to play. The format, with its faster pace and smaller space, is considered more demanding and has gained popularity among players and fans alike. The facilities offer a comfortable and secure environment, contributing to the growth of indoor football in Colombia.
