So, here I am. Starting a blog just like everyone else and their dog. I've thought about starting one for a long time but I never thought I'd have anything meaningful to say or the stamina to keep it going. I'm still not sure about the first and pretty pessimistic about the latter. We'll see how it goes, bear with me.
I'm not going to introduce myself more thoroughly but there's one thing I want to get out there. This blog is and will be in English. It'd be easier to talk about the things I plan to talk about in my native Finnish and most of the specialty terminology I most likely will need is not at all familiar to me in any other language. So why English? First of all, I currently live in Canada and nobody here speaks Finnish. It makes sense to write in a language the people you interact with daily can understand, right? The second, and perhaps more important, reason is that there's already a ton of good stuff in Finnish (and definitely in Swedish) but I haven't seen any in English. Perhaps it's just my limited view. I do, however, believe that there is a growing audience for English language conversation on floorball, floorball coaching and related matters. So there.
I have a bunch of ideas of what I will talk about but no set schedule. I'll write when the inspiration strikes but I wholeheartedly welcome any comments any time.
Welcome.
