Floorball ACT would like to invite everyone to come and give floorball a go at thisfree 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.
