DescriptionFloorball is similar to floor/ball hockey, but played with a specialized whiffle ball, and extremely lightweight sticks made out of composite materials. These differences make it a lot more safer, and much faster than it's hockey counterpart. 
 
Floorball is a game of skill and speed, and is extremely fun and economical to play. It has a magical power of "hooking" you into the sport for life after trying it out just one time. 
 
NHL players of European descent are known to play floorball to keep in shape, and to improve their skill level in the off season. Players include Pavol Demitra, Marian Gaborik, Mats Sundin, etc.. 
 
I dare you to give it a chance, your life will never be the same!
