In game five of the Pixbo-Kalmarsund series, we saw a totally different outcome.

To increase the pace (measured as "numbers of possessions" in the NBA, for an example) and number of events in a floorball game, there are some pretty easy and logical tools to your disposal as a coach.

1) Trying to activate full court pressure when the opponent has the ball and is looking for entries into your zone, to force them to be active and maybe give up possession quicker.

2) Shooting a lot, and trying to win the ball back with counter-press, forcing multiple possession switches within one sequence and thriving of the chaos that is created.

Let us look at how this affected the outcome of this game.
