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 Phoenix

Ztec Phoenix (Ztec 8cers Floorball Club)

Last Season: N/A. First timer.

Finally Ztec 8cers are sending in the much awaited division 2 team. Not one, but two! Phoenix is the stronger of the two based on our “professional” opinion after a glance through their team sheet.

A team full of guys, all well into their teenage years except for an odd 13 year old budak. The team looks pretty strong physically. They should be able to cruise pass most of the team in Div 2 by outpacing them.

Although there might be a lack in Floorball techniques, but they are definitely not lacking in football skills, expect to see some crazy football tricks, "mind boggling" like what Jose would describe. Get ready to witness Floorball played in a way that you have never seen before.

Key Player:
Adrian Koay. Probably the more skillful player in the team and above all a well built athlete. Highly rated by the coach and the team will be banking on him to lead the Phoenix in this campaign. Big test coming up on match day 6, look forward to it.

Rising Rookie:
Danial. The only budak in the team la. He might be 13 year old, but quite skillful already, and has ok ok predatory instinct. Saw him played against the Springsfield girls and Bedok boys, scored a couple goals. Should be able to grab some goals if coach fields him more regularly.

Prediction:
Bendy:
2nd. Strong la this team. All athletic and tough, should outrun the lesser teams. Dalat will be the impenetrable wall, they are too insanely strong for them to overcome. Silver should be certain la, but Bullets will sniffing behind and snatch it away from them if they get complacent.

Jose:
Definitely title contenders for this years Div 2. In fact I do reckon that they are the most athletic team in the whole of Div 2. I'm predicting this team to score quite a lot of goals this season. The game between Dalat Falcons vs Ztec Phoenix will be the title deciding game. Whoever wins that game will come up top in Div 2 this season.
