The new sport of ice soccer is an on-ice version of association football. Competing teams try to score by kicking a projectile, through the opponent's goal. There is also a similar new sport - Ice Soccer on Skates — in which the participants wear ice skates and play on an ice rink.

Rules

• Scoring - like regular field soccer
• Game length – 30-60 minutes, depending on ice time available
• "Zoning Off-sides" - very different from other sports
• Penalties for play infractions and unsportmanlike conduct
• Cannot use hands and/or forearms to control or direct the Boot'r
• "Heading", "slide tackling", "aerobatic kicking", "boarding" and "body checking" not allowed

Teams

For adult games, each side (team) has nine players: six slammer/blockers, two backs, and a goal keeper. An extra back is added in youth games, for a total of ten players per side. Games are typically 30–60 minutes long.

Equipment Required: ice, ball (Boot'R), helmet, shoe–boots (e.g. broomball shoes), helmet (such as a hockey helmet)

About the Boot'R

The uniquely shaped and weighted Boot'r makes controllable, sustainable ice soccer play possible. The Boot'r provides a big "sweet spot" for control; and its weight and shape keep it in play at a speed that enable players to execute serious passing and play-making.
