What is Borak-Borak Floorball?

Borak-Borak Floorball (BBF) was initiated by a group of three avid floorballers from Penang, Malaysia. The interest sparked off due to a certain passion for the sport and a keen desire to share that passion to others. With that, came the idea of 'borak-borak'.

What does the term "Borak-Borak" actually mean?

"Borak-borak" is a Malaysian lingo that equates to the English word "chit-chat". The phrase is commonly used and has somewhat the power to identify one's identity as a Malaysian. BBF is passionate to 'chit-chat' about the happenings and events of floorball, first in Penang and then the other parts of Malaysia. With that in mind, Borak-Borak Floorball came into existence.

Who are we?


BBF comprises mainly of three suspects under the pseudonyms of Jose, Bendy and Spritzer. However, BBF has also taken in hired-for-free reporters in their effort to cover as many grounds as possible.

NOTE: BBF is not an official website to any organization or governing body. We are merely a group of passionate floorballers who seek to share this passion to others. We strive to be courteous, neutral and honest in our opinions, thoughts, reviews and analyses.

Our vision?

BBF sought to 'talk big' and 'talk much' about floorball. We hope to represent the floorball community in Penang as well as the nation, Malaysia, in the bigger picture. We want to be a voice for floorball in the present and future generation, a voice to be heard not for recognition but for the ultimate growth and development of floorball in Malaysia.

Team Preview: Ztec Griffin

Ztec Griffins (Ztec 8cers Floorball Club)

Last season: N/A. First timer.

Second team for Ztec in Div 2 since they have got so many people in their club. This team consist of girls and guys who are new to the sport. The girls of the team are the more experience ones, even though the team on overall is still very new.

We have hardly any clue on how this team would play. Hopefully, this league will unearth some of the hidden talents within the team. The team should be fighting in the bottom half of league table. Their boys might prove to be their best bet in this quest.

Key Player:
Leo Nard. The most experience player on the team sheet. A goalie with quick reactions, sometimes reacts too fast even before the ball reaches him. Still, his experience will prove valuable in leading the team and keeping the scorelines respectable.

Rising Rookie:
Gim Hong. A very athletic defender whom has good game sense. Though he is new to the sport, with his pace, he runs and challenge for balls, rather solid in defence and might occasionally pop out up front scoring a goal or two.

Predictions:
Bendy:
4th. Firebrands will be their closes rival for the placing, but I think the Griffins will come out top because their guys line are slightly more experience and play indoors more regularly la.

Jose:
Ztec Griffins to come out 4th, because they have a better goalie in Leo Nard when compared with Firebrands and Frontliners 300. However, this team won't be winning too many games thats for sure.
