Final Fantasy 10 offers a rather awesome minigame for players to enjoy called Blitzball. The concept of Blitzball is introduced to players right away as the opening sequence shows Tidus playing a match of this underwater sport. However, Blitzball as an actual minigame becomes accessible after the events in Luca, with players gaining control of the Besaid Aurochs as their default team.

You are able to recruit other players to your team by finding them around Spira and examining their details to see if they are available. The more your Scouting Level increases, the more details you can see about each player when you examine them.

Recruiting Other Blitzball Players

Final Fantasy 10 Recruiting Blitzball players

Blitzball players can be found all around Spira and we have the location of each one listed just further down. By examining a player, you can see their statistics and whether they are currently contracted or a free agent available for hire.

If they a player is available, you can choose to hire them for a set number of games. If there is a player you want but that is currently under contract with another team, note how many games are left on their contract and make sure you return to speak to them when their contract has ended.

Once your players' contracts have expired, you have the choice of renewing them or not. If you choose not to, you can later rehire the same player again by finding them in the same location. The Besaid Auroch team members stay in the locker room in Basement A of the Blitzball stadium in Luca if you ever want to rehire them.

Your Scouting Level will increase as your level your Blitzball Team and win more matches, allowing you to see more information about each player:
