Floorball is a fun, safe and fast-paced indoor sport, originally developed in Sweden. It is growing at a rapid pace internationally, and has recently received Olympic recognition. Games are played on an indoor rink with ice hockey-style goals. Teams consist of five field players carrying lightweight plastic/carbon-fibre sticks, and a goalkeeper wearing a helmet and padded clothing. The wiffle-style plastic ball is extremely light which, combined with rules to prevent stick checking and limit body contact, makes floorball safer than comparable sports*.
