Floorball wants to be taken seriously

THE floorball fraternity in Malaysia wants to shed the sport’s image as a recreational sport and is yearning to be taken seriously following its two-silver achievement at the Myanmar SEA Games in December.

Both the Malaysian men’s and women’s teams finished second behind regional powerhouse Singapore at the Wunna Theikdi Stadium in Naypyitaw when floorball made its debut as a demonstration sport in last year's SEA Games.
