What they’re saying

“Most of us playing now hadn't even heard of floorball five years ago. Richmond gave us an opportunity to try it, some of us stayed — and that's how this grew. The Atlantic Floorball Open was a success and primed for expansion, but our priority is still home. The Showcase is our way of introducing the sport differently — keeping it safe, welcoming, and low-pressure, while still offering structured play for those who want to grow.”

— Nick Baldaino, President of Richmond Floorball Club (WRIC)

“The Richmond Region Tourism Foundation's Sports Grant Program exists to champion local organizations that are expanding opportunity through sport. When clubs like Richmond Floorball Club create new pathways for participation and attract regional visitors, it benefits our entire community.”

— Morgan Kenley, Richmond Region Tourism (WRIC)

What’s next

The Richmond Floorball Club will host the 2026 Atlantic Floorball Open later this year, building on the success of the inaugural event in 2025.

The takeaway

The Richmond Floorball Showcase is an example of how a local sports club can introduce a new and growing activity to the community, while also attracting regional interest and support through events and partnerships.
