Urban Floorball

Detailed
description

Summary

The 3vs3 Urban Floorball is a very fast and dynamic game format of Floorball, where the game alternates from goal to goal in seconds as there is no off-side in the game. It has been a way of introducing the sport to schools, universities and the workplace. Urban Floorball is predominantly a goal-scoring game and there are a lot of really beautiful goals scored.  It requires the players to be constantly on the move, either following their opponents, challenging for the ball in close physical contests, or using stick-handling skills and body movements to beat their opponents to create goal-scoring situations.
