Ollie celebrates scoring during a futsal game against Wheeler's team

NWT Soccer is about to launch a new futsal league for youth aged three to 19 in Yellowknife.

Futsal is an indoor variant of soccer played without use of the walls on a hardcourt surface. It’s perfect for the Northwest Territories, which has a lot of hardcourt indoor gyms but very few suitable outdoor fields.

Ahead of the league’s launch, Wheeler and Ollie joined up with some of the NWT’s top young players to give it a go. With Ollie’s team short-handed, he ended up having to play… in a jacket and tie.
