Are you an ice hockey player? We'd suggest you come to our special session for ice hockey players instead!

Floorball ACT would like to invite everyone to come and give floorball a go at this free session!

Floorball (also known as innebandy, salibandy, or unihockey) is a high-speed, low-impact indoor sport. Established in the 1950s in the USA, and then re-developed into an ice hockey training game in Sweden in the 1970s, floorball has spread to over 75 countries, and is a prominent sporting code in Scandanavian and Central European countries.

During this 60-minute session, Floorball ACT members will provide you with an introduction to the sport of floorball. This will include:

  • Equipment overview
  • Skills
  • Rules of the game
  • A scrimmage match

Floorball ACT will be able to provide all necessary equipment - all you will need to bring is:

  • Clothes & shoes suitable for indoor sport;
  • A drink bottle.

Why should you try floorball? There's plenty of reasons!

  • Floorball emphasizes skill over sheer speed or strength;
  • Getting started in floorball is cheap - you don't need to buy any special equipment, and most players will only ever buy themselves a stick;
  • It's a great workout for all fitness levels, in a great environment!
