  4. Sure, thats the biggets problem lack of competition and yes for now too much euro-centric, but just like handball or water polo for example. but don´t forget that this sport is instead of the previously mentioned is actually still very young but already is played in many countries of all continents. ofc the level is still too much different. The thing is just that for some few years this sport already attracted a massive amount of especially young peoples everywhere, even in Slovakia, this sport was in fact unknown some 6-7 years ago but now children in schools during physical education lessons want play only floorball. In few years it became the sport with the third largest youth base behind ice hockey and football it´s for sure worldwidely the sport with the highest increase in popularity, counting the last few years.
  5. 2 sure gold medals for Sweden and a good shot at qualification for Denmark you meant I think it´s a question of time, when floorball will do it. It´s one of the most quickly developing and young people atracting sport ever btw tomorrow vs for 1st and 2nd place in group C and for a better opponent in the play-offs. it´s going for a tough match. congrats for the qualification for the play-offs btw
  6. Double digit and we are qualified for play-offs
  7. and mainly and only street hockey (or also called ball hockey)
  8. Go boys ! First ever match between Slovakia and Australia . We need a win in order to definitely qualify for the play-offs but we need to improve the play much more than yesterday with Poland.
  9. Lara Gut takes opening super-G of the season The 2016 ladies' super-G globe winner collected her first 100 points in the discipline for the new season on Sunday during a snowy day in Lake Louise, Canada. Fresh snowfall on the course and continued winter weather throughout the day forced the lowering of the start to Coaches Corner jump and delayed the race by over an hour. But the course crew worked hard to ensure a race-worthy track in time for the fastest women in the world to have one final contest for the year at Lake Louise. Lara Gut was more ecstatic about her downhill podium finish the previous day than her ninth career super-G victory –and third at Lake Louise – because she felt like she finally figured out the mountain on Saturday. "I wasn't skiing really well at the top so I understood that I should change something. And from the middle on, I just tried to keep a really straight line and be aggressive on the skis. I'm happy it paid off," she said of the super-G race. "It was always a fight [here] in downhill. I never found the way how to be fast. Since yesterday and the past days I had the feeling I was finally starting to build something. And that's cool because usually it's the beginning of the season it took always so much energy here. I was always fighting." Tina Weirather of Liecthenstein secured her first podium of the season in second, just 0.10 seconds behind Gut, after putting up a fight of her own. "Yesterday I was really angry because I skied really well but I just didn't have the result. The first few had sun and then when I skied it was bad visibility, so I was really down. I tried to take that anger into skiing today, and it worked," said Weirather. "It's an aggressive sport. I mean, you have to control it – that's for sure. I was really calm today. I was not nervous. I was super focused. And it's exciting to be back on the podium." Speaking of the podium, the appearances just keep coming for Italian Sofia Goggia who has now finished inside the top three in three different disciplines over the past week. She was 0.59 seconds off Gut's pace in the Lake Louise super-G. "Oh, I'm pretty speechless actually. I'm pretty happy with my results even though I made a little mistake today. I made my third podium, " Goggia said. "So it's like a dream for me – in three different disciplines. It's, hey, what's this going on?" Goggia said. Full Results Here

  13. Domen Prevc dominates the world's elite While his older brother and superstar Peter Prevc is still struggling with his shape, only 17-year-old Domen Prevc dominates the world's elite in ski jumping. Prevc won a top competition on Sunday in Klingenthal, close ahead of Norway's Daniel Andre Tande and Austria's Stefan Kraft. The team of Poland could not defend their one-two lead. Domen Prevc scored 286.9 points with his jumps of 140 m and 141 m and came in only the tiny margin of 0.2 points ahead of Tande (286.7 points). This was the second win in the World Cup for Domen Prevc. Also third-placed Stefan Kraft (284.8 points) was only 1.9 points behind Tande. "My wins are the result of hard work, they don't just happen", Domen Prevc explained after his success. "But after my second jump today I didn't expect that it would be enough for the win or even the podium. I hope that I can show many more long jumps this winter that I'm satisfied with, that's why I started ski jumping", said Prevc. With Daniel Andre Tande, the by far best Norwegian at the moment achieved his second podium result this winter. "I'm very satisfied with my performance today. Although my first jump was not as good as the second one. The fact that I could still finish second, shows me that I can win with perfect jumps", said Tande. For Austrian Stefan Kraft today's third place was the first podium this winter: "Once again it was an extremely exciting competition. My second jump was my best one here, that was good. Unfortunately I lost some points with the landing, but I'm still very satisfied. Now I hope that I can continue jumping on this high level and finish in the Top 10 consistently." Poland loses one-two lead - good jumps are not enough After the first half of the competition, Poland's Maciej Kot and Kamil Stoch were first and second, but both were not able to defend their leading positions despite good jumps. The competition was simply too strong today. At the end Kot and Stoch came in fourth and fifth, and with Kubacki, Hula and Zyla in 13th, 18th and 20th, it was yet another strong team result for the Polish athletes, who could win yesterday's team competition in an impressive manner. Freund loses yellow bib Best athlete of the German Ski Association was Markus Eisenbichler in sixth. Eisenbichler, who already proved on Saturday that he can do well on the hill in the Vogtland-Arena, could have achieved even more with a better first jump. The athlete of Bavaria is in a really good shape right now. It didn't go that well for Severin Freund, who surprised with extremely strong performances in Kuusamo. Freund finished 11th and is now second in the overall World Cup, behind Domen Prevc. With his win in Klingenthal, his second win this winter, the younger Prevc is now in the lead of the overall World Cup and will wear the yellow leader's bib next weekend in Lillehammer (NOR). Descombes Sevoie strong again, Klimov consistent Vincent Descombes Sevoie could confirm his strong performance of Kuusamo. The Frenchman finished 10th and is still among the pre-qualified athletes. Russia's Evgeniy Klimov came in on a strong 16th place and also confirmed his very good results from the season opener in Kuusamo. Canada and USA strong in the final Mackenzie Boyd-Clowes convinced in 12th, Kevin Bickner proved his upward trend in 23rd. Many top athletes not in the final Many of last winter's top athletes are still not in their best shape. So Michael Hayboeck (AUT / 31st), Daiki Ito (JPN / 33rd), Roman Koudelka (36th) and Johann Andre Forfang (NOR / 43rd) where among those who failed to make the cut for the final in Klingenthal. Moment of shock for Vojtech Stursa Czech youngster Vojtech Stursa provided a moment of shock. After a crash after the landing of his first jump he had to be carried out of the outrun. But it became clear relatively soon that he didn't suffer any serious injuries. Stursa was even able to participate in the final round and came in 28th. Finns not in the final It was a disappointing day for the two Finnish athletes in Klingenthal. Jarkko Maeaettae (41st) and Janne Ahonen (45th) could not qualify for the final of the best 30 jumpers. Head coach Andreas Mitter and the Finnish team will face some difficult times. The next two ski jumping World Cups will be held next weekend in Lillehammer (NOR). This is a replacement venue for the two competitions, which were scheduled for Nizhny Tagil (RUS), but later moved to Norway by the International Ski Federation FIS.

  14. German reign continues with second Frenzel-win Frenzel and Kircheisen teamed up for the win in Lillehammer Again, it was Eric Frenzel who perfected a glory weekend in Lillehammer by taking the third victory in as many days. He finished 10.8 seconds ahead of his team- and roommate Björn Kircheisen after the duo had demonstrated the perfect teamwork at the head of the field. Behind the two, Jørgen Graabak finished third (+23.4) and took the remaining spot on the podium. Takehiro Watanabe was the leading man after the jumping event. The young Japanese landed at 138 metres and his point total of 145.3 points gave him 5 seconds of head start on superstar Eric Frenzel who had 139 metres and 144 points to show for. Björn Kircheisen continued with his fantastic jumping performances on rank three (138.5 m; 143.6 p.), closely followed by Akito Watabe on rank four. He and Kircheisen started into the race seven and eleven seconds after Watanabe. Not to be underestimated were Norwegians Jørgen Graabak and Magnus Krog who delivered on the jumping hill today. Graabak was a hot contender for the podium with 137 metres (140.5 p.) and just 19 seconds to make up but also teammate Magnus Krog as well as Germans Johannes Rydzek and Fabian Rießle had good positions with time behinds of 54, 51 and one minute and one second to catch up. So at the start of the race it looked like the big fight between Germany and Norway was back on in the fifth event of the season. Following the race during the first lap, it became clear quite quickly that the long-term roommates Eric Frenzel and Björn Kircheisen had something against a big fight for the podium results. Almost a picture-book example for perfect teamwork, Frenzel and Kircheisen exchanged the lead every 500 metres and worked in perfect sync to keep the fast pursuers off their back. Jørgen Graabak tried his utmost but was not able to close the 20-second gap to the leaders in the end. Japan’s Akito Watabe was on course for the fourth rank again but was overtaken by Rydzek and Rießle on the last lap, so that it was four Germans among the first five athletes in the end. Behind these five, the rest of the Top Ten was more evenly spread than in yesterday’s event with Finn Eero Hirvonen securing another great seventh position, Francois Braud capturing rank eight for France, Bryan Fletcher with a long overdue Top Ten finish for Team USA and Austrian youngster David Pommer extending his impressive record of Top Ten positions in this season with another tenth place.

  15. and it became the moment of the day the highlights of the match (the moment is at 1:25)

  17. Maiden victory for Mathieu Faivre in Val d'Isère GS What an exciting race! The level of this giant slalom on the O.K course in Val d’Isère (replacement of Beaver Creek) was extremely high and the scenario with a fired up local French team very exciting. In the end, it’s a maiden victory for Mathieu Faivre, who climbs on the highest step of the podium between both standings leaders Marcel Hirscher (2nd +0.49) and Alexis Pinturault (3rd +1.11). After the first run, only one man could hold on to the lead against the five attacking croissants, that ranked 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th with in that order Mathieu Faivre only +0.01 off, Thomas Fanara, Victor Muffat-Jeandet and Alexis Pinturault. It’s Marcel Hirscher, the men that won the Overall globe five times in a row and the giant slalom globe three times, including the two past years. The tension could not have been bigger ahead of the second run. Alexis Pinturault charged the course and was able to lay down an amazing run, with split times that led him +1.11 ahead of the current leader Thomas Fanara. Neither Riccardo Tonetti, nor teammates Muffat-Jeandet and Thomas Fanara would be able to beat this time. With only two racers left at the start, both within the smallest margin possible, the battle promised to be exciting. Mathieu Faivre started with a strong run, which offered him a glimpse on his first World Cup victory ever. The pressure was now on Marcel Hirscher’s shoulders. The Austrian, who started the season with a podium in Sölden and a win in Levi, battled hard and tackled the course in an aggressive way, but failed to beat Faivre’s time and finished second of today’s giant slalom.

  18. Sundby battles his way to Lillehammer tour win Martin Johnsrud Sundby of Norway was back in familiar territory winning his fourth consecutive early season 3-Day Tour. He has now won twice in Lillehammer and twice in Ruka in tour events since 2013. Sundby began the day in 7th position and quickly joined a group of 12 skiers in pursuit of Sweden's Calle Halfvarsson who led the tour after the first two stages. Despite a good fight Halfvarsson was caught after the 10 km mark. Sundby made his move on the last lap on the longest climb of the course and scattered the lead pack. Sundby was well clear of the field and cruised home to win by 2.3 seconds. Twenty year old Johannes Klaebo continued to impress with a second place finish behind Sundby just ahead of Finland's Matti Heikkinen who was the day's fastest on time. Halfvarsson hung tough and finished 5th on the stage with the 21st fastest time of the day over minute behind Heikkinen's time. Full Results Here
