Join us in June for a fun and exciting new array of sports offerings ONLY at The Den!

We've partnered with Richmond Floorball Club to launch a "Floorball Summer"!

Summer 2025 will bring a Floorball league, adult and youth clinics, referee clinics, tournaments and so much more!

If you are a seasoned player, a hockey player looking for off-ice activity, or you never held a stick in your hand, you can start playing floorball at the Powhatan Ice Den.

• Floorball comes from the same family of sports as ice hockey but is played indoor with floorball sticks and a light hollow plastic ball.
• Floorball is played with lightweight plastic ball and a floorball stick which is made out of composite material and plastic blade.
• The goalie plays without a stick and is the only player of the team that wears protective equipment consisting of a helmet and lightly padded clothing and gloves.
• Floorball can be played on any hard service.

Floorball rules promote contact-less and safe play. The basic rules are:

• No lifting, hitting or blocking of opponents stick is allowed.
• No pushing or tackling except for shoulder-to-shoulder contact is allowed.
• Ball can’t be played with head or hand.
• The stick must stay below waist level and ball cannot be played above knee level.
• Players are not allowed to play while jumping.

What Equipment is needed?

• Players - only need a stick.
• Goalies - helmet, knee pads, and gloves are optional.

Where to get a stick:

• www.floorballplanet.com - also has great info for picking gear.
• www.amazon.com

Rules:

RFC officers and volunteers will operate the league, having learned from USA Floorball officials. RFC will instruct/educate the league and players while officiating. Additionally, they will have guidance throughout the summer from IFF-certified referees. 

Safety of the players and consistency of the enforcement of the rules are paramount.

More rules on play can be found on RFC's website. 

We're teaming up with Central Virginia Gymnastics for 6 weeks of full-day fun, combining two awesome half-day camps!

We've partnered with Overtime Athletics RVA to host a series of (indoor) youth summer camps and a middle school league dedicated to street hockey (aka floor hockey or dek hockey).

What is street hockey?

• This sport is played on feet (not ice or roller skates) with a ball and a hockey stick. It's a great for first time players who are interested in hockey.
