I agree - no cup needed. However, you do need to find out whether the field is turfed or carpeted. If carpeted, keep a mental note of locations where old seams are loose. I have kids shattered their feet, twisting their ankles etc. on those. If turfed, see if the facility allows you to wear turf shoes (some even allow outdoor cleats) as they give you much better traction for the quicker cuts and turns.
Technially, indoor game is much faster paced. Unless a low bounce ball is used, the ball tends to be bouncey and will feel quite a bit different than outdoor. Better first touch that dampers the bounce will give you more time to dribble. If the field is walled, stick your guy against the wall when playing defense as the wall is your defensive teammate that never misses. When attack, do the reverse, stay a step or two away from the wall so that you won't be sandwiched. Plus you can use the wall for a 1-2 pass to beat the defender.
People get injured a lot more frequent in indoor than outdoor so proper warmup and stretching is essential. Indoor soccer is really a different sport than pure "football". If you use it for skill and touch development (pay less attention to the W/L), it will be quite beneficial when you get back outdoor since your decision making process is now faster.
p.s. If futsal is available in your area, try it! It's a lot of fun and very good for foot skill development. Good luck and God bless!

You really don't need a cup. I have played football for 15 years, and never been injured in that place.
Remember to pass the ball rapidly - it's a fast game!

Just remember...the wall is your best friend in indoor soccer. Good luck!!!

lol you dont need to wear a cup, its exactly like outdoor but with walls around you, depending on what kind of surface it is you may need to use flat shoes, but everything else is the same
