Quick answer
The best small floorball gift from our EU store is the Extreme Floorball Shooting Targets (€34), a set of three targets that install on any full-size goal. Next up are the Shooting Pad 120x60 cm (€59) and the Stickhandling Trainer (€69). Our range does not have many items under €30, so for a true stocking filler you can combine one small product with simple extras that you already own or can buy anywhere: a notebook for a training log, fresh grip tape for the stick, or a handwritten "training voucher" for a session together.
Key takeaways
- In the EU store, the smallest training product is the Shooting Targets set at €34. Everything else starts at €59.
- Three small gifts work in most stockings: Shooting Targets (€34), Shooting Pad (€59), Stickhandling Trainer (€69).
- Generic extras, such as a notebook, grip tape or a water bottle, make the stocking feel full at a low cost.
- A "session voucher" you write yourself (for example 30 minutes of passing practice together) costs nothing.
- Targets only work with a full-size goal, so check that the player has one.
- Do not put a stick in a stocking. Length, flex and grip side need to be chosen with the player.
What counts as a small floorball gift?
I have coached for many years, and most players remember the gifts that got used, not the biggest box. A stocking stuffer needs to be small to wrap, simple to understand and ready to use that day. Our range is built around training equipment, which is rarely tiny. So, I will be honest: the EU store has one product under €50 and a handful under €100. Here they are.
| Gift | Price | What the player gets | Needs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extreme Floorball Shooting Targets (set of 3) | €34 | Targets for the corners of a full-size goal, installed in about 10 seconds | A goal of 160 x 115 cm |
| Extreme Floorball Shooting Pad 120x60 cm | €59 | A 5 mm thick shooting surface with a handle | A goal and a net |
| Extreme Floorball Stickhandling Trainer | €69 | A foldable trainer for dangles and ball control | About 1 m² of flat floor |
| Extreme Floorball Tiles 8-Pack | €79 | 0.9 m² of snap-together tiles | A free floor area |
The targets, the trainer and the tiles are Made in Europe. Better Floorball is a Swedish brand, and everything is designed in Sweden and tested for maximum durability. If you want to spend more, see the Christmas gift guide or floorball gifts under €100.
How do you fill a stocking around one product?
A single product makes a gift. Several small, useful things make a stocking. Build around the main item.
| Main item | Add these free or cheap extras | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Shooting Targets (€34) | A notebook with a "hits out of 20" table drawn in it | Turns every session into a score |
| Shooting Pad (€59) | A voucher: "30 minutes of shooting with me" | Time together beats stuff |
| Stickhandling Trainer (€69) | A card with three challenges to beat | The player knows what to try on day one |
| Tiles 8-Pack (€79) | A small broom or hand brush | Keeps the surface clean |
Ideas that do not come from our shop
- Fresh grip tape for the player's stick. Check the colour and width with the player or the coach. A worn grip is a common problem, and a new one improves feel straight away.
- A training notebook. A simple one is enough. Draw a table for the date, the drill and the score.
- A water bottle or a sports towel. Practical, and it goes into the training bag.
- A match ticket. If you live near a club, a ticket to a game gives the player something to copy.
- A session voucher. "Passing practice in the garden, 30 minutes, any day you choose." Write it by hand.
I do not name brands for these extras on purpose; anything generic works. If you want to give gear that is more specific to the player, ask the coach.
Coach Erik's tip: Wrap the Shooting Targets with a short challenge written on a card: "Hit all three targets with 10 shots. You have until New Year." A small challenge with a deadline creates a habit. The most useful stocking stuffer is the one that comes with a reason to use it tomorrow.
Which small gift suits which player?
| Player | Best small gift | Extra |

| Teenager who wants a harder shot | Shooting Pad 120x60 cm (€59) | Session voucher |
| Adult in a small flat | Tiles 8-Pack (€79) | Hand brush |
| Coach or team parent | Shooting Targets (€34) for the team goal | Notebook for drills |

A 10-minute "unwrap and play" session
Whatever the gift, plan 10 minutes for the first use. This works for the Shooting Targets or the Stickhandling Trainer.
- Set up (2 minutes). Clip the targets to the goal or place the trainer on a flat floor. Cue: let the player do it.
- Warm-up (2 minutes). 20 slow touches, or 10 slow wrist shots.
- Challenge (4 minutes). With targets: 10 shots at each target and count the hits. With the trainer: 30 seconds of figure-eights, rest 15 seconds, repeat three times. Watch for: the player rushing. Slow and accurate first.
- Record (2 minutes). Write the score in the notebook or on the card. Tomorrow's goal: beat it by one.
Shooting needs a net behind the goal, such as the Backstop Net 5x2,5 m (€129). See the net buying guide. More session ideas are in floorball shooting targets training and floorball stickhandling at home.
What should stay out of the stocking?
- A stick. Personal size and grip side make it a risky surprise. Read how to choose a floorball stick and decide together. We do not sell sticks.
- Shooting gear for a player with no goal. Ask first.
- Items that depend on size. Shoes and clothing need fitting.
- Big items. A goal, a passer or a kit is a main present, not a stocking item. See the best sellers collection for ideas.
Common mistakes
- Buying targets for a player without a goal. Fix: ask a parent or the coach, or choose the trainer.
- Filling the stocking with random small items. Fix: choose one main item and two helpful extras.
- Forgetting the net. Fix: if the player shoots at home, plan a net, even if it is the next gift.
- Not explaining how to use the gift. Fix: add a challenge card.
- Guessing grip tape colour or size. Fix: ask, or choose a neutral option.
- Ordering at the last minute. Fix: plan your order in good time and check the delivery estimate at checkout.
FAQ
What is the cheapest floorball gift from Better Floorball?
In the EU store, the Extreme Floorball Shooting Targets (set of 3) at €34 is the lowest-priced training product. They install on any full-size goal of 160 x 115 cm and install in about 10 seconds.
What small floorball gifts can I give besides products from the store?
Fresh grip tape for the stick, a training notebook, a water bottle, a sports towel or a handwritten session voucher all work. They are generic items, and you can buy them anywhere.
Can I give a Shooting Pad as a stocking stuffer?
Yes, if the player already has a goal. The Shooting Pad 120x60 cm (€59) is 5 mm thick, has a built-in handle and can be used outside all year.
What fits in a stocking for a child who is just starting?
Wrap the Stickhandling Trainer (€69) as the main gift and add a card with three simple challenges. Add a notebook, so the child can record scores. Keep sessions to 10 or 15 minutes.
Should I buy a stick as a small gift?
No. Length, shaft flex and which side of the body the blade is on are personal choices, and a wrong stick can hurt technique. Choose a training product or ask the coach first.
Do the targets work with any goal?
They are designed for full-size floorball goals measuring 160 x 115 cm. If the player has a smaller goal, check first or choose another gift, such as the Stickhandling Trainer.
Summary
Our smallest training gift is the Shooting Targets (€34), followed by the Shooting Pad (€59) and the Stickhandling Trainer (€69). Build a stocking around one of them with generic extras like a notebook or grip tape, write a challenge card and keep the stick out of the surprise.
