FRISCO, TX--(Marketwired - October 15, 2015) - No sport is complete without the referees and the Professional Futsal League demands the world's elite when it comes to officials.

The league is slated for an exhibition schedule in the fall of 2016 with full league play set for fall 2017. As preparations continue, the PFL will begin accepting applications for the Head of Officials through Nov. 6.
