FLOORBALL......

After the last post, when I briefly mentioned "floorball", I now realise that I need to explain a bit more. It is a type of hockey, played on a smooth court, with a lightweight ball. I think it´s a bit like uni-hockey (maybe even the same thing with a different name, but actually I don´t know).
We have been having a great time learning control skills, passing skills and shooting skills. The techniques have been practised with our staff team and with all of the various groups that come here. We even learnt about how we can use elements from the game to give a bible study.
Today, we finished our 4 days with a competition, a Brazilian team (which Gideon joined), a Dutch team (which Josiah joined) and the Swiss team (the pros). It was a friendly game, they teased us somewhat.....but of course, they won!

Bet Josiah and Gideon enjoyed this!
Looks like you have an OK pitch for this game - hope it proves popular with the kids and a good means of outreach.

Love to all, R and M
