FLOORBALL / UNIHOCKEY / SALIBANDY
Floorball is easy to learn, fast paced, exciting, safe and low-cost type of indoor hockey. At first glance it resembles hockey but is played with specialised sticks and rules that promote safety and skills
Floorball is considered to be very similar to ice hockey and field hockey and countries with a history of these sports show strong growth potential. Normally the game is played with 5 field players and a goalie on each of the opposing teams.
Floorball is easy to start because it doesn't require any complex or expensive equipment, even at the highest level. The stick and the ball are light and easy to handle which makes it fun to learn. The movement in Floorball is done by running and it can be compared to soccer.
The nature of the game is also very safe because body contact is not allowed. This makes Floorball a great game for mixed teams and children, though when played at the international level the game can become very physical and more tactical.
