Boleh-Futsal as seen in the picture is played in an enclosed compound but it is still an open area. In fact it is played in what should effectively be called a Tennis Court, minus the nets of course.

Instead of two teams of five players, Boleh-Futsal has two opposing teams of seven a side, with one side (left-side in the picture) without the goalkeeper. The number of players each side are often determined by who is present that day, up to 20 players a side is not uncommon. There is no half time or full time, it ends normally at dinner time or when the ball owner wants it to end.

To add to the spirit of “Apa Pun Boleh”, players can wear anything and any colour they like, as long as it is not batik. Shorts or jeans, long sleeves or sleeveless, boots or barefooted, anything goes. Team players recognise each other by way of shouting and swearing at each other.

Normally there will be no referee or lines-man, the side who shouts the loudest and argues with the most vulgarities has the advantage.

A goal is scored when the ball crosses the line marked by a pair of slippers. The distance between the slippers varies from team to team. Handicap is given to the weaker team by means of a smaller distance between the slippers making it harder for the stronger team to score.

Still, it is uncivilised to play Futsal in a Tennis Court. I cannot imagine a group of people playing Boleh-Tennis in a football field.

Age catching up, hell no, I believe in living life to the fullest. The days of foolish endeavours are gone. This is call planning, organizing and picking up loose ends. Yes, one can do that with one’s life.

Watching movies at the cinema on weekends is a sort of get-away from reality for me. I watch movies with passion, go into the scenes, imagine I am a part of the movie. Afterall, the tickets do not come cheap, might as well dig into it. Popcorns and drinks add to the sum. Parking ticket and petrol are expenses too. Well, hobbies don’t come cheap. People say watching movies is the cheapest hobby yet. Me? I don’t think watching movies qualifies as a hobby. Ah, whatever.
