Floorball is an indoor team sport played with a plastic ball and lightweight sticks. The game is similar to hockey but played on a flat surface, typically in a gymnasium. Each team consists of six players, including a goalkeeper, and the objective is to score goals by hitting the ball into the opponent's net using the stick. Players can pass, dribble, and shoot the ball while trying to prevent the opposing team from scoring. The game is fast-paced and requires quick reflexes, coordination, and teamwork. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins.
