Floor Ball Tournament in Kyiv

As you may recall, Steve played floor ball in a tournament in Vinnitsia at the end of March and their team (FK Zaporizhia) placed fifth. The top four teams advanced to a final tournament in Kyiv and their team didn't advance. However one of the top four teams dropped out of the tournament so they were invited to go instead. It was a two day tournament so they left Friday night (May 26) on the train to Kyiv. As soon as they got there at 9:00 a.m Saturday morning they headed to the gym and played their first game at 12:00. 


They played two games on Saturday, one loss 5-0 and one win 11-5.

They stayed in a dormitory for night again which was equally as sketchy as the one in Vinnitsia.

On Sunday they played two games - won one 4-3 and lost one 6-0.
This was the food available for purchase at the gym:

If you're interested in watching their last game here's a link to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeW15nYt5zg&app=desktop
Steve is highly embarrassed and hopes you don't watch it (because they lost) but it might give you an idea of what floor ball actually is.
