PREFACE
This 2010 edition of the game rules was published inSeptember 2009.Even though we now consider that another milestone has been reached in our work with therules of floorball, we are well aware that theremight besome deficiencies and loop-holeswhich will have to beadaptedbefore we have the ‘perfect’ set of rules.Everyone involved in the game is encouraged to read the rules fully and carefully. It isimportant that the game is enjoyable, safe, played fairly, and is easily understood by players,coaches, referees, spectators and the media alike.We will be very grateful for any suggestions, ideas or constructive criticism, which will helpour continuing work. Itmust be appreciated that the rules will have to change constantly inline with the rapid developments in playing style.Please note that the rules are equally valid for both men’s and women’s floorball at all levelsof competition. The sole use of masculine pronouns is merely to ensure that the text remainsas simple as possible.Largenumbers of changes have been made to the wording of the rules, in order to improveand simplify the text. Several other changes clarify situations which were not specificallylegislated for in the2006 edition, and provide what we hope are ‘common sense’ solutions.Suggestions concerning alterations and improvements, and enquiries about reprinting withinthe copyright laws by national associations, should be sent to:International Floorball FederationCompetitionAlakiventie 2FIN-00920Helsinki,FinlandFax:+358-9454214 50E-mail:competition@floorball.orgJune2010IFF Rules and Competition Committee (RACC)Filip SumanChairman
