Broomball
What is broomball you ask? Broomball is a sport similar to ice hockey, but played without skates, using a ball instead of a puck, and a broom-shaped stick. It's a team sport where players tru to score by hitting the ball into the opposing team's net using the broom. All students are invited to stop in and play! If you're interested in some fun, athletic events, stop by and give broomball a try!
