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.

EuroFloorball Cup 2009: Women's

IKSU remained unstoppable throuhgout the tournament as they won also the Final after an intensive match.

The strong first two periods confirmed the victory for IKSU and they took the third EFC victory in the clubs history with 9-5.

In the offensive zone IKSU was clearly the most skilful team in the tournament. The fast moving game with lots of position changes was too hard to defend for the other teams and IKSU was able to create great scoring opportunities to the best shooting sector. As also the shots of the Swedish players were sharp and accurate, this resulted in many goals during the tournament.

IKSU started the final strongly. Their fore checking play was hard for the Dietlikon defenders, usually they pressed the defenders with two forwards. This made the game openings hard for Dietlikon and the game was mostly played in Dietlikon´s defensive zone in the first and second period.

It looked like the match was settled in the second period, when IKSU scored four goals and increased the lead already to 7-2. One of the advantages for IKSU was that they had three lines, which all were able to score and actually the first seven goals were scored by six different players, only Cassandra Edberg succeeded twice.

Even though there was a five goal difference in the beginning of the third period, Dietlikon did not give up. They made some changes to the line-ups and started to press hard. The speed of the game was increased and Dietlikon took the control of the tempo. Dietlikon was able to reduce the lead to 4-7 during power play when Daniela Morf scored her second of the match. But right after that, just when it started to look as if Dietlikon could still have a chance, the strong IKSU forwards stepped out again. Viktoria Wikström and Therese Andersson shot one goal each in a minute and the champion of the tournament was settled.

The best players of the match were Wikström and Simone Berner.
