History
FFI was founded on 22 June 2014 at the 'Indonesia Futsal Congress' held by PSSI as the Indonesia Futsal Association (Indonesian: Asosiasi Futsal Indonesia; abbreviated as AFI).{{Cite web |title=Kongres Futsal Indonesia 2014 |url=https://www.pssi.org/news/kongres-futsal-indonesia-2014 |access-date=2023-08-31 |website=PSSI - Football Association of Indonesia |language=id-ID}} FFI is the successor to the National Futsal Body (Indonesian: Badan Futsal Nasional; abbreviated as BFN) which was later dissolved by PSSI in 2014. On the next day, Hary Tanoesoedibjo was elected as AFI's chairman.{{Cite web |last=Wahyudi |first=Kukuh |title=Harry Tanoesoedibjo Jadi Ketua Asosiasi Futsal |url=https://www.juara.net/read/321582482/harry-tanoesoedibjo-jadi-ketua-asosiasi-futsal |access-date=2023-08-31 |website=Juara.net |language=id}}
