-ALTERNATIVE SPORT: "THE FLOORBALL" (FIELDHOCKEY).

FLOORBALL in P.E.:
-IT IS FUN and FAST: Many players believe this game to be as fun as any other sport, in many cases even more fun. The speed of the game is another interesting feature as more mature and skilled are playing.
-IT IS SAFE: Compared to many other main stream sports this is a relatively safe activity.
-IT IS INCLUSIVE: Since it is kind of hard to control the ball. The game to a large extent levels out the different skill levels between players.
-IT IS SELF-MOTIVATING: In some sports the players are standing still for long periods - something that creates a lack of focus on the game, in particular for younger players. In FloorBall the ball is almost not still for a single second.
-IT PROVIDES THE PLAYERS WITH A VERY GOOD CARDIO VASCULAR WORK OUT.
-IT IS NOT EXPENSIVE.

SO...IT IS ON ITS WAY TO BECOME AN OLYMPIC SPORT, in fact, Floorball is a fast-paced, exciting, safe and low cost type of indoor hockey. It resembles floor hockey or ball hockey but is played with light-weight plastic composite sticks and rules that promote safety and skill.
