The Myanmar Futsal League (Burmese: မြန်မာဖူဆယ်လိဂ်)[2] is the top league for futsal clubs in Myanmar. It is sponsored by Myanmar and therefore officially known as the MFF Myanmar Futsal League.
History
[edit]The Myanmar Futsal League, established in 2011, is the premier futsal competition in the country, featuring top clubs competing annually in a double round-robin format. The league has grown steadily over the years, with university-backed teams like Myanmar Imperial University (MIU) and Victoria University College (VUC) emerging as dominant forces. The 2024–25 season saw MIU clinch the championship with an impressive unbeaten run, securing 52 points from 17 wins and one draw. They were followed by MH Dream Team and YRG Futsal Team in second and third places respectively. The league operates mainly at the MFF Futsal Court in Yangon and offers prize money to the top finishers, further incentivizing competition.
In addition to the men’s league, Myanmar has also developed a Women’s Futsal League, which launched in 2025 with ten teams participating in a similar double round-robin format. This development reflects growing support for women’s futsal in the country and aims to promote greater inclusivity and grassroots growth. The Myanmar Futsal League not only serves as a platform for local talent but also allows its champions to qualify for regional competitions organized by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) and the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF), giving teams valuable international exposure.
Overall, the Myanmar Futsal League has become a key part of the country's sporting landscape, combining competitive play with developmental opportunities. Its expansion to include a women’s league further demonstrates the commitment to fostering futsal’s popularity across different demographics in Myanmar.
