I played a couple of times years and years ago. It's been so long that I can't even remember the basics. It was fun.

The only thing I really remember was that it was pretty hard - at least for the people I was playing with - to lift the ball with the broom. I was playing defense and essentially acted like a second goalie. Whenever the ball was around the net I'd get down on my knees or lay down and block as much space as I could. I have no idea that's actually legal, but it worked.
