Quick answer
The best floorball Christmas gift is the one that gets used in January. For a small budget, choose Extreme Floorball Shooting Targets (€34) or a Shooting Pad (€59). For €60–100, pick the Stickhandling Trainer (€69) or an 8-pack of floor tiles (€79). From €100 up, a passer (€129) or a goal with a pad (€199) turns a garage, hallway or garden into a real training zone. Below you will find every budget tier with prices, who each gift suits and what to check before you buy.
Key takeaways
- Gifts are grouped by budget: under €60, €60–100, €100–200, €200–400 and €400 and up, all with prices from our EU store.
- Match the gift to the player's space. A hallway needs tiles and a trainer, a garage can take a goal, a passer and a net.
- If you buy a goal or shooting gear, add a backstop net so the first shot does not end at the neighbour's window.
- Do not guess the stick. Length, flex and grip side are personal, so ask the player or coach first, or give a training product instead.
- Kits save money against buying parts one by one and give a complete first session on Christmas morning.
- Free shipping applies on orders over €300 in the EU, which covers the larger kits.
How do you choose the right floorball gift?
I have coached players from age 7 to adults, and the best gifts I have seen all had something in common: they removed one obstacle to practising. A child who has no flat surface at home needs tiles. A teenager who wants to shoot harder needs a goal, a pad and balls. An adult player who trains alone needs a passer. Before you open the shop, answer four short questions.
- Where will it be used? Hallway, garage, basement, garden or balcony. A floor space of about 1 m² is enough for stickhandling. Shooting needs roughly 3 m of run-up plus a net.
- What is the player's weakest skill? Ask them or the coach. Choose stickhandling, passing or shooting accordingly.
- What do they already own? A parent usually knows whether a goal or tiles are already in the cellar.
- How much time will they spend? Even 15–20 minutes a day matters, but only if the setup is always ready to use.

Under €60: small gifts that get used
The Shooting Targets (€34) install on any full-size goal of 160 x 115 cm in about 10 seconds and give the player corners to aim for. If the player has no smooth floor, the Shooting Pad (€59) gives a 120 x 60 cm shooting surface with a built-in handle, so it can be carried to the garden or driveway.
€60–100: the best value for stickhandling
If you only buy one gift, the Stickhandling Trainer (€69) is my first pick. It folds, is easy to carry and fits into a hallway. Pair it with the 8-pack of tiles (€79) and you have a complete small-space station for about €148. The tiles, trainer, passers and shooting targets in this guide are Made in Europe. Gift a Floorball 50-Pack (€89) when the player already has a goal and wants volume.
€100–200: the passer and the goal
The Passer (€129) is the gift that changes the most for a player who trains alone, because it replaces a teammate. The Passer Pro (€149) adds a second slot for volley passes. For the shooter, the Extreme Floorball Goal (€149) is a foldable, full official size, and the Shooting Kit (€199) adds a pad to it.
€200–400: complete zones
Kits are the best value here. The Shooting Kit Tiles (€209) and Tiles XL (€279) combine a goal with 8 or 15 tiles. The Passing Kit Tiles (€239) and Passing Kit Tiles XL (€379) pair a passer with 15 or 30 tiles. For the player who loves data, the Xtreme Shooting Targets 4-Pack (€379.95) connects to an app and records accuracy, shot speed and reaction. It is a Swedish design.
€400 and up: the full home zone
The Extreme Floorball Skills Kit (€569) includes a 45-pack of tiles (4.9 m²), the Passer Pro and the Stickhandling Trainer. It is a serious gift for a dedicated player or a shared family present.
Coach Erik's tip: Wrap the box, but also plan the first session. The gift only works if the player gets a quick win on day one. Put the tiles down, set a timer for 10 minutes and let them try the first drill below before the Christmas dinner. A used gift on 25 December is a habit by New Year.
Which gift suits which type of player?
| Player | Main goal | Gift idea | Add-on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner child (6–9 years) | Fun and ball feel | Stickhandling Trainer (€69) | Tiles 8-Pack (€79) |
| Young player (10–13 years) | Shot and passing basics | Shooting Kit (€199) | Passer (€129) |
| Teenager who wants a harder shot | Shot power and accuracy | Goal (€149) + Shooting Pad (€59) | Shooting Targets (€34) |
| Adult who trains alone | Passing and one-timers | Passer Pro (€149) | Tiles 15-Pack (€139) |
| Goal-hungry shooter with a garage | Reaction and feedback | Goalie Target (€129.95) | Backstop Net (€129) |
| Tech-minded player | Measured progress | Xtreme Shooting Targets 4-Pack (€379.95) | Floorball 50-Pack (€89) |
| Family with limited space | Shared training zone | Skills Kit (€569) | Safety Net (€139) |
The Extreme Floorball Goalie (€129.95) is a goalie target that turns a full-size goal into a training partner, which is a great pick for players who already have a goal. Anything that you hang or set up outside needs a net: the Backstop Net 5x2,5 m (€129) or the wider Safety Net 7,5x2,6 m (€139) protect cars, windows and relationships.
How do you set up the first session on Christmas morning?
Use these steps for any of the tile-based gifts. Total time is about 20 minutes and works in a hallway or a garage bay.
- Build the surface (3 minutes). Snap the 33 x 33 cm tiles together, in a 2 x 4 grid for the 8-pack. Press the corners down so there are no gaps. Cue: let the player do it, because owning the build makes owning the habit easier.
- Warm up (3 minutes). 30 seconds each of side steps, lunges, arm circles and wrist rolls.
- Stickhandling ladder (6 minutes). Side to side 30 seconds, rest 15, figure eight 30 seconds, rest 15, through-the-legs 30 seconds. Repeat twice. Watch for: eyes glued to the ball, so call out a number the player must see.
- Passer or target game (6 minutes). With a passer: 3 sets of 20 passes with a short rest. With targets: 10 shots to each corner. Score the result and write it on a piece of paper.
- Cool down (2 minutes). Wrist and forearm stretch, then put the gear away or leave it set up for tomorrow.

What about sticks, shoes and other gear?
We do not sell sticks, and I advise against buying one as a surprise. Length, shaft flex (a lower number in mm means a stiffer shaft), blade curve and grip side are personal, and a wrong choice does more harm than no gift. If you want to give a stick, ask the player's coach and read how to choose a floorball stick together. A safe alternative is to give a training product now and let the player choose the stick later. Similarly, indoor shoes need a fitting. Choose the gift that does not depend on a perfect size.

Common mistakes
- Buying a stick as a surprise. The size, flex or grip side will probably be wrong. Fix: give a training product, or ask the coach first.
- Forgetting the net. A goal without a backstop net means lost balls and unhappy neighbours. Fix: budget €129 for the Backstop Net together with the goal.
- Ignoring space. A goal does not fit in a small flat. Fix: choose tiles and a trainer for hallways.
- Buying many small items instead of one useful one. A pile of small gifts often goes unused. Fix: choose a kit that works as a complete session.
- Not checking existing gear. Many players already own balls or tiles. Fix: ask a parent or the coach before ordering.
- Leaving gear in the box. Fix: plan the first session and help the player set it up on the day.
FAQ
What is the best floorball Christmas gift?
The best gift is the one that gets used regularly. For most players, the Extreme Floorball Stickhandling Trainer (€69) or an 8-pack of tiles (€79) gives the quickest start in any small space. A passer (€129) or a goal with a pad (€199) suits players who have a garage or garden.
What can I give a floorball player for under €60?
The Extreme Floorball Shooting Targets set (€34) fits any full-size goal and gives the player corners to aim for. The Extreme Floorball Shooting Pad 120x60 cm (€59) gives a smooth shooting surface that can be carried outdoors. Both are useful, compact gifts.
Should I buy a floorball stick as a gift?
Only if you know the exact length, shaft flex and which side of the body the blade is on. These are personal choices, and a wrong stick can hurt technique. A training product or a kit is a safer present, and the player can choose the stick with the coach.
What is a good floorball gift for a beginner child?
The Stickhandling Trainer (€69) and an 8-pack of floor tiles (€79) give a child a place to practise ball control in a bedroom or hallway. When they are ready to shoot, add a goal, a pad and a backstop net. Keep early sessions short and fun, about 15 minutes.
Which gift suits a player who trains alone?
A passer. The Extreme Floorball Passer (€129) returns the ball for straight passes and volley passes, and the Passer Pro (€149) has two passing slots. Combined with tiles in a kit, such as the Passing Kit Tiles (€239), it gives a complete solo training station.
Do I need a net with a floorball goal?
Yes, if you plan to shoot at home. A backstop net such as the Extreme Backstop Net 5x2,5 m (€129) stops balls from reaching windows, cars and neighbours. It also saves time chasing balls, so sessions stay productive.
Summary
A great floorball gift removes an obstacle to training: a smooth surface, a way to pass alone, a goal to shoot at or a trainer for stickhandling. Pick your budget tier, match the gift to the player's space and weakest skill, add a net for any shooting gear, and plan a first session so the gift gets used. Orders over €300 ship free in the EU.
