We are making history?

Proudly carrying our homemade Floorball goals



We are happy to have Markus with us in the team, he is an answer to prayer. Markus has played Floorball all his life and been studying in a Floorball upper highschool in Sweden (we have those sport oriented schools in Sweden), we did not know that when we got this idea before the team arrived here.



For the first time in history as far as we know, the game of floorball has been played in Greece by greeks! The kids really loved the game. This game was invented in Sweden, it's a bit like icehockey, but indoor and with a ball and no iceskates or tacklings.

We were visiting the highschool in Limenas and we had great fun there with about 150 kids.
We give thanks to the international Floorball association that sponsored us with the material.
What did the kids think? Well! We can only say that there would propably still be kids playing if we would not have stopped them. So we are looking forward to get to play with them again.
