Ninh explains - The Rules of Beach Soccer. If you like football/soccer but can't stand how long it is and the few amount of goals per game, try watching beach soccer! High scoring, short games, what's not to love? Be sure to share this video and subscribe 😀

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

Ninh Ly NCAA Football please!

[@gusdrivinginaustralia6168]

If I may make a request please. Which sport travels most? Is it teams in SuperRugby in the southern hemisphere teams from Australia and New Zealand and south Africa and Japan and Argentina. Although the season is only 5 months the top guys play on for national teams. Or is it Auckland Warriors in the NRL, longer season every game not home is in Australia most in Sydney but can be Melbourne or Townsville.

[@czarii2422]

I’ve played football/soccer on a beach before, and I must say runn8ng in sand is a fair bit more tiring than running on a field. Great video.

[@NinhLyUK]

Totally agree - it's exhausting. Thanks man, much appreciated.

[@Emper0rH0rde]

Getting sand in your eyes: the sport.

[@NinhLyUK]

Basically, yes.

[@weirdshit4youxp219]

Pls do rules of swamp soccer (finnish sport)

[@NinhLyUK]

If enough demand, yeah.

[@weirdshit4youxp219]

Ninh Ly ok

[@matthewlo7868]

it’s always a good day when a new “Ninh Ly Explains Sport Rule” video comes out! Good work, yo!!

[@NinhLyUK]

Technically second, but I appreciate the effort. Thanks for the comments and kind support as always! 😀

[@FidoArtz]

Have you cover indoor or Arena soccer? If not will you cover that sport? It's pretty much still a thing today since 1970. And I'm sure you can't really confuse it for futsal.

[@NinhLyUK]

As yes, Arena Soccer. I might do, depends on how much demand I get for it.

[@Arnabit]

@@NinhLyUK make video of “rules of youtube comments”

[@clipboss8052]

You know what I like about you Ninh? Besides your brain, I admire the fact that you actually reply to & interact with your fans comments quite a bit. Even mine a couple of times.

[@NinhLyUK]

Ah, I appreciate that! Thanks bro! I try and answer honest comments with honest replies.

[@DanTheCaptain]

Excellent job again as always! I've always wanted to see Beach Soccer in the Summer Olympic program! It's still a relatively new sport so maybe it'll appear sometime in the future!

[@NinhLyUK]

Thanks Danny K - given that this sport is ever increasing in popularity (and the goals are spectacular), I think it'll appear in the Olympic program sooner than we think.

[@pedrojoker5251]

Keep up the work been watching ur videos lately. They really help

[@NinhLyUK]

Thanks man, much appreciated!

[@EdgarHernandez-uu4iw]

Yessss finally. Well done Ninh

[@NinhLyUK]

Thanks Edgar.

[@oortiz8050]

Great Video!😊

[@evanferguson7811]

this sport looks like so much fun!

[@NinhLyUK]

Oh yeah it's great. And the goals are spectacular too. Thanks Evan.

[@666Brago]

That looks like a very unique game. Why is it not played in the Summer Olympics?

[@NinhLyUK]

It's a relatively new sport that's being played in more and more countries. I'm sure it'll make an appearance at some point.

[@Robdc89]

ninh is right as Well as the fact that there hasn't been a lot of competition for the sport in multi sport events. The only games that i have found that have beach soccer as an event are the European games.

[@TheIceCream1]

Beach football is under FIFA Rule for some years now, so it has almost same amount of activity as normall football at this point since it directly connected to every existing football association the same with futsal, there are national and international club competitions aswell as national team competitions like world cup, since FIFA pick them up almost every country has its own department of it-

[@TigheOSullivan]

Reality is it should have been introduced in Brazil, but the lack of the female side of the game stopped it from being introduced, so we had Rugby 7's instead. FIFA is concentrating on growing the female side so it will be introduced into the Olympics in the future.

[@SpitefulAZ]

please do the rules of foosball (table soccer) ! we actually had a disagreement over said rules at a hostel in Berlin!

[@NinhLyUK]

Ummm, is that a sport?

[@SpitefulAZ]

Ninh Ly sure why not! :D if shin kicking is.....

[@NinhLyUK]

Point taken.

[@markhorton3994]

I'm not sure it's an organized sport but it's very popular in Mexico.

[@D3usExMachina]

A very unique game to take a look at is Jugger. Its a genuine sport based off a sport from a movie

[@NinhLyUK]

Yeah that's another sport that's based from a film (like rollerball and quidditch). Not sure if I could make a video about it though?

[@philunityunreal7228]

Yeah! That helps me to develop a part of my website about football (soccer)! :)

[@NinhLyUK]

Cool, glad this video helps!

[@geogamesreviews5405]

Could you do the rules of rounders? I love these videos as they are very educational for people who don’t know what the rules are and people who want to do that sport knowing all about the rules.

[@NinhLyUK]

Problem with rounders is that whilst people are asking for it - there's almost no professional footage of it as it's not played professionally anywhere. Sadly I cannot make bricks without clay.

[@jmgonzales7701]

what is rounders?

[@parkermajor1487]

This is the best channel

[@NinhLyUK]

I appreciate that. If you could help me share these, that'd be good 😀

[@parkermajor1487]

Ninh Ly I always share your videos with my friends

[@NinhLyUK]

Thanks man! :)

[@diogomachado5562]

muito bom

[@NanobanaKinako]

How would you even know where's the border for penalty area so that the goalkeeper doesn't commit handball because he touches the ball outside of his box? Unlike regular football, you can't paint on sand.

[@nabhannbn]

Its very superb game , i used to play and also mud football 😁

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes

[@basedbartholomew3968]

1:15 Russia 4-0 Up to Against Brazil Yes Товарищи Yes

[@NinhLyUK]

I think they won this game something like 6-2. Complete dominant performance, worthy World Cup Beach Soccer champions!

[@Luckymag-if4dw]

@@NinhLyUK Brazil are by far the best in this sport, why are yall trying to diss then? Childish as hell

[@user-cc9mo4ou6u]

Russia is... well... at least was good a this sport. Yes товарищ.

[@user-cc9mo4ou6u]

upd. They are still good at this

[@skelworthvods984]

How come I have never seen this kind of soccer on tv I have never even heard of it your videos always explain sports I have never heard of but really though how do you find theses sports

[@NinhLyUK]

Boredom I guess.

[@jonasbautista7017]

Hi ninh, greetings from Cosoleacaque, Veracruz,Mexico until England :D, i like me a video about the rules of the roller hockey and/or the inline roller hockey. The first sport is played in a wood pitch and the players used a quad-four-rolls skates; and is very popular in Spain and Portugal. The second is very similar to the ice hockey but is played in a solid floor pitch and not on ice, the players used a inline-four-rolls skates and is very popular in United States and Canada...do you meet these sports? I am very sure that you do, because you are an expert in this topic. Please make a video explaining the rules of anyone of this two sports (and if you can, make the two videos, ahahahaha), i am very fan of alls variants of hockey, but these two don't understand very much. Thanks, Ninh, you are the best KZbinr :)

[@NinhLyUK]

Thanks Jonas. I will make these videos if I get enough demand. :)

[@snake20ist]

I thought of another sport you could do a video about, Biathlon.

[@NinhLyUK]

Interesting sport. I always liked the fact that it was a combination between cross country skiing and rifle shooting. Not a bad idea, I might do that with enough demand.

[@Snaily]

Finally, a sport I can play!

[@NinhLyUK]

Awesome - good luck! This is a pretty cool sport to play!

[@weirdshit4youxp219]

Snaily go try swamp soccer... yeah finnish r weird people

[@ngarcia103]

Wow... I didn't realize this was an official sport... usually, I just see people on the beach playing it casually (pickup beach soccer, if you will).

[@NinhLyUK]

Yeah, this is an actual thing! They've got their own World Cup and stuff like that. Pretty cool! :)

[@64cgfan]

Can you please explain flag football (American Flag Football League)?

[@NinhLyUK]

Hi Adam. It's on the list, but whilst doing research - I found out that different organisations play by different rules. The AFFL is probably the most extreme as their rules are significantly different to the rest. This'll make my job difficult for sure.

[@alexjudge5634]

ninh can you do the rules of flag (american) football? thanks!

[@NinhLyUK]

If I get enough demand, yeah.

[@padoification]

could you make a video of kabaddi, its tag only in a pro leagu etc... it was very interesting to see...

[@NinhLyUK]

I already did. Star Sports copyrighted it and took it down. I fought and lost.

[@padoification]

oh what a pitty... keep your awsome work up :D

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

Other sports you can explain. Beach Handball, Horse Racing, Yachting, Croquet, Indoor Field Hockey, Bull Fighting, Banned Sports, Target Shooting, Track & Field games, Pumpkin Chucking, Cheese Rolling or Little League Baseball.

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes, some of these are worthy of making into a video but most are either too simple, or niche sports that nobody generally looks for.

[@alanvallazza9781]

Left off Pickelball and Bocceball. Maybe Surfing and Ice Skating.

[@usinebeglaryan5661]

How do they hit the ball without hurting their feet?

[@duonghoangminh7634]

Should I play with the standard size 5 soccer ball to play beach soccer?

[@NinhLyUK]

Yes.

[@somepersonontheinternet2477]

I usually play regular soccer but I'm gonna play this tmr. do I need shin guards or cleats lol

[@NinhLyUK]

No, just tough shins.

[@depp8714]

If you play this, you should also try some snow soccer in winter (shoes needed though). The feeling is pretty similar, except for the temperature.

[@pedrodorantes3527]

Correct me if I'm wrong Ninh, it's the football softer than a regular association football one?

[@NinhLyUK]

No, it's a regulation ball. In Futsal, they use a smaller ball. But not in Beach Soccer.

[@benjaminalexander8836]

Ninh, which is the sport you found very complicated??

[@NinhLyUK]

NASCAR - not the sport, just the points system.

[@indritgjonku4851]

Mr Ninh, you forgot to add a huge difference between association football and beach soccer: the pressure balls are inflated. FIFA mandates the match balls be inflated with a pressure between 0.4 and 0.6 atmospheres .

[@suserman7775]

This sport cures my insomnia.

[@eddunaway6325]

Beach soccer looks like fun almost the same rules as indoor soccer but you can't wear shoes looks like it can be a Olympic summer game

[@NinhLyUK]

Cool, thanks - glad this video helps. Check out my channel for more like this :)

[@DoragonRider75]

It is weird that they have three periods just like in ice hockey. In fact, those two sports are the only ones that I have heard about that play three periods.

[@NinhLyUK]

I believe so, yeah.

[@qwertyTRiG]

Looks like a good sport for eye candy.

[@NinhLyUK]

Some pf the goals are spectacular, for sure.

[@qwertyTRiG]

@@NinhLyUK I was more meaning that the players are good looking. Not quite as cute as sepak takraw players, though.

[@sk8terboi10003]

How do they know what is the penalty area theres no lines

[@NinhLyUK]

They approximate it using markers at the side.

[@mineabou]

Can you explain Dodge Ball

[@NinhLyUK]

Sure thing. just need to find some decent footage of it.

[@MordecaiTheAwesomeBluejay]

Just in time for the World Cup Ninh?

[@NinhLyUK]

Pretty much, yeah!

[@alexkoppany7229]

Do the rules of padel

[@NinhLyUK]

If I get enough demand, yeah.

[@notdougo7910]

Do touch football/rugby

[@NinhLyUK]

If enough demand, yeah.

[@lelainemorato]

I like how the guy at 2:38 used a ping pong paddle as a red card

[@NinhLyUK]

Yeah, they do it differently.

[@theorupturetan4670]

These highlights are the only time I'm pretty sure that Russia beats Brazil in any form of soccer. Also, would you ever consider looking at Arena Soccer? It's not much like futsal despite how it may sound.

[@NinhLyUK]

As yes, Arena Soccer. I might do, depends on how much demand I get for it.

[@skelworthvods984]

It seems like that there are beach versions of all sports now

[@NinhLyUK]

Seems like it yes.

[@luisrebelo7051]

Do beach handball pls

[@NinhLyUK]

Is there such a thing?

[@luisrebelo7051]

Ninh Ly yes xD

[@jake-mn2ns]

do 3 sided football

[@NinhLyUK]

It's one that I've thought about, but finding decent footage is hard.

[@pallkolbeins]

How about beach handball

[@NinhLyUK]

If enough demand, yeah. But it's largely handball played on a sand pitch.

[@basedbartholomew3968]

2:37 Should Be Called Red Pallet!😂

[@NinhLyUK]

Believe it or not, they actually have cards, but I had no footage of it. There was this dude waving a ping pong paddle and I thought I'd use that instead!

[@GaryTurbo]

They should have a women's league

[@NinhLyUK]

They do. And they have a women's world cup of Beach Soccer.

[@nolfy1380]

Hey Ninh, can you make a video about the differences between Judo and Ju Jistu (or BJJ)? If that does not work, can you make a video about the differences between Ju Jitsu and Brazilian Ju Jistu (and can you make a seperate video about both types of Ju Jistu)?

[@NinhLyUK]

BJJ - yeah I've been meaning to make a video on that for quite some time, but never got round to it. As for the differences, they're fairly obvious as netball is to basketball.

[@TigheOSullivan]

@@aristoteles6265 Indoor pitches do exist in Russa, Switzerland, and Ukraine as well as other places.

[@TigheOSullivan]

Because they have an established league and tons of indoor facilities. I believe saying they kick the crap out of Brazil is an overstatement as Brazil is reigning Champion again, but "rumor" has it Russia is so invested in it because the oligarchs and others have tons of gambling around it.
