Floorball is a versatile indoor team sport developed in the 1970s in Sweden, played in a rink with five field players plus a goalkeeper in each team. It is a hockey style game played with plastic sticks and a light ball and with a goalkeeper without a stick. An exciting game that promotes quick transition and fluid game play, with the main objective to score more goals than the opposite team.

For Special Olympics the game is slightly modified from the "regular" form of Floorball. Matches are played 3 versus 3 with goalkeepers, on a smaller court that measures 20 m long by 12 m wide. This form of Floorball was developed for the intellectually disabled, which allows players to develop better handling abilities and hand-eye co-ordination.
