English: Kotilainen: The wild one
Funny interviewee. Problem child. Loose cannon. Kindergarten employee. Sniper. MVP of WFC 2016 in Riga. That is Peter Kotilainen, 22 years and suddenly Finland’s biggest floorball name.
Kotilainen: The wild one
Radim Cepek resigned from the position of head coach of the Czech national team despite having a valid contract until the home WFC in Prague in 2018. In the interview for Czech floorbal, he explains, why he has made such a decision.

English: Roof collapsed during a tournament
The roof of the newly opened sports hall in Ceska Trebova collapsed during a game of a floorball tournament of the junior “regional talent” teams . Fortunately all the players, referees, audience and organisers managed to leave the hall on time, before any disaster had happened.

Articles: Veterans’ Day in Riga
I ran into an old floorball article from 2012. Is Mika Kohonen preparing for his last WFC tournament, it asked. We now know it was not his last and neither was the next one in 2014. This time I’m not even going to speculate if this one is! A local commentator laughed as he talked about...

English: Rezanina: SSL instead of NHL
Lukas Rezanina is an unconventional young guy with positive energy and always good mood. Exactly this character helped him to become the first Slovak in the floorball NHL, as he calls the Swedish Superleague. Oddly enough it all started with him not being a good enough ice-skater.
