We usually train twice a week during off season, and train more during season and pre-season. We work hard and play hard, remembering to take a break from training after the season and for us to prepare for final exams.

We look at stick-handling abilities, fitness and attendance. We also prioritise good attitude and a keen willingness to learn and improve.

For competitions, we are allowed to register 23 players each for both Mens and Ladies, inclusive of goalkeepers. However, we do have recreational members who are more than welcome to join our trainings(:

Yes! We have recreational Floorball sessions that are usually held on Tuesday Nights or other days depending on the availability of the court space.

These sessions are perfect for beginners and strangers to the sport, where we will have a dedicated EXCO member in charge to show you the ropes!

We incorporate basic fundamental skills with exciting game time to allow for a safe and holistic introduction to the sport for all to have fun!
