About Us

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.

Player Rating: Ztec Griffins vs Frontliners 300

5 = world class
4 = superb
3 = good
2 = ok ok
1 = bad

Ztec Griffins:
Gk:
Amos Lim 3
Stand in capt and goalie for the day as the original went off for a holiday. The replacement fit in seamlessly and it was his assured performance that kept the Griffins in the game when 300 were firing shots on target all over. Good job.

Defenders:
Brandon Pereira 2
With Gim Hoong moved up, the back line was all Brandon's. Did the job behind but a bit hesitant going forward for a shot. Might have gotten a few SOT if he was slightly daring enough.

Daniel Boey 2

Yi Min (did not play enough to be rated)

Attackers:
Gim Hoong 3
Amos for Leo Nard, Gim Hoong for Amos. The promising defender took over Amos's baton as the centre for the night. Not too bad, but at times dropped down too deep and became more like a third defender, giving 300 all the space in the middle of the park which fortunately they did not capitalised on.

Yuh Ting 3
With the whole team reshuffle, the girl had more playing time up front then usual. An upgrade from recent performance with more confident runs and forecheking. Miss a few chances too. Hopefully her performance will merit more playing time in upcoming games.

Frontliners 300:
Gk:
Soon Khai 2
Other than letting in a low ball, the keeper rarely had nothing to do. Griffins were either content at sitting back in their half or have all their shots wide and high. Bendy thinks he could have done better with the goal. More training on the legs.

Defenders:
June Kew 2

Sonia Gopal 2

Roselyn Ewe 2

Attackers:
Michael Cheah 3
5 goals in 3 games with 2 tonight. Other than than, disappointing. Was either fatigue or mentally affected due to fear of losing, the centre like his counter part, sat in front of his defenders and cleared the balls all night. Still a long way to become the complete center.

Mekanath 2
Shots all over but rarely threatening. With Michael swithcing off, there was little supplies of balls near enough for his weak shots to go in. More shooting practise boy.

Julian Tan 2
Like Mekanath, lack supplies of ball and was clueless in the court. But still young, more training will do him good.

Tristan James 2
