About Broomball
Broomball is popular in Canada and is like ice hockey, only without the skates. Similarly, Broomball has comparable tactics to floor hockey, and floorball.
Broomball History
It is generally believed that broomball originated in Canada, however there is no fully accurate history of the game. Recent research shows that a sport similar to broomball was played in Iceland in the 10th century. The sport was looked upon as warfare, and player deaths were not uncommon. Games could involve entire villages and last weeks at a time. The first recorded Broomball games in North America occurred at the turn of the 20th century in Canada. Minnesota was a hot bed for Broomball in the 1960's. Broomball is now popular in Australia, Japan, Sweden, Italy, and Switzerland.
Broomball Tips
Good broomball players can handle the ball well with their brooms/sticks. Players can practice their stick handling and passing with a teammate, or set up obstacles on the ice and practice maneuvering the ball around them. Players should practice shooting at the net from different angles.
