Chicago Sports Monster Broomball
2007`s Winter League was great! Be on the lookout for 2008`s Upcoming Programs come this fall!
Floor Hockey will run until then so check out that link if you have the hockey itch no matter the season!
Broomball has been Sports Monster`s most popular sports in Denver & the Twin Cities in the winter and now it`s here!! There is a small window of playing time, so we start in early December and sometimes early January --depending on location. All leagues are played at outdoor rinks in Chicago.
We had a great season in 2005-2006 and we look forward to seeing the program grow here in Chicago. Please drop us a line with any questions on this super fun sport.
Due to VERY limited space, you will need to register as quickly as possible to get your team or yourself a spot. If you are signing up by yourself or with a couple of friends, be sure to include options of what day you can play.
Curious about this fun sport?
If you haven`t played Broomball before, think of it as a combination of ice hockey and floor hockey, but played with brooms and without skates. Sports Monster will be providing the sticks, balls and helmets - so all you have to do is show up (you do need mouthguards too). Broomball-specific shoes are available at SportLine or other athletic stores, but if you don`t feel like spending the extra money - gym shoes work just fine.
Each team will have 5 players (3 men/2 women) on the ice at one time. We recommend having at least 10 players on your roster to allow for subbing and player absences.
Because of the short amount of time we have to complete a season, the leagues typically consist of a 6-week schedule, with all teams playing 6 regular season games and the winner is the team with the best overall record.
Match times run 45 minutes and most leagues run in the evening with 7:00 - 10:15 start times. Please note that due to unpredictable weather, this is subject to change and games may have to be played on different nights to complete the season if possible.
Although many full teams register, Sports Monster encourages individuals and groups to register as we do create new independent teams each season.
This is sure to be a great time! And it only comes around twice a year for a short time - so don`t miss out!
