How is this different to unihoc that I played in PE back in the day?

Loved unihoc, maybe my best sport :cool:

Because unihoc is hockey on unicycles? I was ok at that.

retired_nashfine

Pretty much the same as Unihoc I think although I have never actually played Unihoc so dont know if the rules are different

And Rocky thought you meant like proper hockey

Unihoc is just the brand name of what I think is the biggest manufacturer of floorball sticks.

My school was cheap, and teachers lazy.

They found/created a game where they could stick every class in the time period and only needed the teachers to sit down and point/scream at people if they lose.

Binball.

Get 2 rubbish bins, stick them up the end of a basketball court (or basketball sized area).

Thrown in about 4-6 soccer balls. The 2 teams have to chuck them at each other and try to hit the bin.

If you throw a ball and it's caught on the full you are out sit down.
If you drop a ball you are out.
If you get hit by a ball you are out.

Hit the bin your team "wins" a everyone goes back in.

Such a bludge game, you just chuck the ball in the air or something and go sit down for 20 minutes.

SI's very own Risto Remes was the best floorball player in England before he went back home, fact. Google his name and floorball to see. :thup:
