What is Floorball?

Floorball is a fast-paced team sport. It is played indoors with five players and a goalie on each side. Players use sticks to hit a lightweight plastic ball. The goal is to score by shooting the ball into the opponent's net.

It is similar to ice hockey, but without ice skates or heavy protective gear. Floorball is popular in many countries, especially in Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, and the Czech Republic.
