Help Bring Floorball to Portland in Summer 2025!

Floorball is a type of non-contact indoor hockey with no bulky equipment. All you need is a stick and a ball!

Known as “innebandy” in Sweden, “salibandy” in Finland, and “unihockey” in other parts of Europe, “floorball” is the official International Floorball Federation term used worldwide. Floorball is the second fastest-growing club sport in the US, behind only pickleball, and is perfect for everyone 18+. There are multiple national tournaments held year-round in various parts of the country.
