The position of the body

  • Keep your legs hip-width apart and bend your knees slightly.

  • The center of gravity is above the toe pads.

  • The pelvis is slightly inclined.

  • The head is held high, but the ball always remains in the field of vision.

  • The torso is erect.


How to hold a floorball stick

  • Wide grip (covered driving, turning, shooting, dribbling).

  • Narrow grip (open conduction).

  • One-handed grip (open driving, fast running).

  • The unihockey stick must be held loosely.


Fast and precise passes

  • Receiving and passing the ball are two activities that are closely linked to each other.

  • In the ideal case, the player is positioned 90° to the direction of the pass.

  • The body position is quite low, the knees are bent and the weight is shifted towards the toes.

  • To receive well, the body accompanies the arrival of the ball and then slows it down (advice: receive trying not to make any noise).

  • To shoot the ball again, perform the reverse movement.

  • Accelerate the ball and launch it in front of your body.

  • Passes should hit the paddle and not the body.

  • The handle grip is quite wide. However, it can change depending on the type of passage. Even one-handed passes can be precise.

  • While making a pass, look at the camera.

  • Be careful not to raise the club too much after the shot (at most to hip height).

One shot, one goal

  • In the ideal case, the player is standing at 90° to the direction of the shot. The ball is in front of the body.

  • The lower hand leads the movement of the stick.

  • Pull the ball on the paddle forward or pull the paddle towards the ball.

  • Accelerate the ball and launch it in front of your body.

  • The handle grip is quite wide. However, it can change depending on the type of shot. While making a pass, look at the camera.

  • Be careful not to raise the club too much after the shot (maximum to hip height).
