Broomball is back but you only have a little more time to sign up.
Registration ends Dec. 22. So, if you want to play a game that's like
hockey but without skates on Campus Martius' ice, better go to the
broomball Web site and sign up.
Excerpt:
Broomball is a
winter sport played in ice arenas and community parks throughout the
country. It is similar to hockey in its formation and rules, but has
some soccer strategies as well. Six players play on each team at once.
Like hockey, there are two defensemen, three forwards, and a goalie. A
player uses a broom shaped stick to maneuver a six-inch diameter ball
up and down the ice. Whichever team scores the most goals wins! Unlike
hockey, players wear soft-soled shoes instead of skates.
