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.

PFL'09 Div 1: The Game Is Back!!

It has been months now since the closure of PFL Div2. Although there was Youthwave and Dalat's Labour Day Carnival to fill the void, but the intensity and excitement does not match of PFL's.

The calmness and quietness is rather hard to bear for all the hardcores out there. Right guys?
Fret not!
The storm is in the making.
And real soon, it will rage through Penang!!

Introducing...
PENANG FLOORBALL LEAGUE 2009 DIVISION 1!!

This year's league has expanded from last year's 4 teams to 6:

Team Names Abbreviations Club/ Organisations
Contact FireAnts CFA Contact Sports
Dalat Eagles DLE Dalat Floorball Club
Frontliners Spartans FLS Frontliners Floorball Club
Innebandy!Co INC Innebandy!Co Floorball Club
Minden Unihawks MDU Minden Unihawks Floorball Club
Ztec 8cers Z8C Ztec 8cers Floorball Club


Fireants was last year's champ with Innebandy in second after Spartans gifted them that spot on the final day, while Unihawks was spared from relegation as there were more than enough new teams rising up in Div 2.

Coming up form below and ready to prove a point, 8cers and Eagles will be a force to reckon with, making the medal fight and relegation battles interesting from the start!

6 teams; 5 games per team; a totoal of 15 games from 16th Jun to 4th Aug 2009.

Game Format:
- One-legged
- 2 periods
- 20 minutes effective time
- FULL International size court(40m x 20m)

Everything else is pretty much the same as Div 2. The only diffence is playing with full effective time and on proper international size court. Unable to imagine it? Picture some thing like twice the size of Dalat. And because of that, all matches will be held in Balik Pulau Sports Complex, where the place is big enough to lay out all the boards.

Matches will be held on every Tuesdays and Thursday nights. Games starts at 8pm. So, people, be there. To support your team kah? To support your idol kah? Or just to support Floorball in Malaysia kah? Be there! This is the closest you can get to proper actual Floorball!! Well, in case you really have to be picky, here is the match schedule:
