Floor Hockey

Floor Hockey
New in 2003! Floor Hockey is adapted from the games of ice hockey and ringetti. It is the only team sport in Special Olympics Winter Sports.
Floor Hockey is played in a rink, but the surface is made of wood or concrete, not ice. The teams are composed of six players, including a goalie. The athletes use wooden poles (without blades) as the sticks, and the pucks are large felt discs with an open center. Floor Hockey also offers individual skills competition
to allow athletes to train and compete
in basic floor hockey skills.
