Floorball = lower cost to students, especially those who are new to hockey (no need to buy a helmet), and has less conduct issues and injuries as a result of no contact or stick checking. We committed to piloting it over a few years and feedback has been very positive so far. We understand it's a change (and perhaps a disappointment) for some of our really intense floor hockey participants, but our program aims to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all, and Floorball is definitely looking like a better fit in this regard. Thanks for your feedback - we definitely want to know how people feel about it. For now, the pilot continues, and you won't see floor hockey on the website this year.
