The Women’s World Floorball Championships are played in Neuchâtel this December and we want to follow the players’ journey towards the event. To promote women’s floorball and women’s WFC, we have one player from each participating country, acting as the IFF GoGirls! ambassador. The ambassadors will be introduced during the next weeks and the journey towards the World Championships may begin!
Suthasinee Faa Phalaruk (Frykholm) is the GoGirls! ambassador from team Thailand. Suthasinee was born in Thailand and now she lives in Sweden with her family. She has represented Thailand in the Women’s AOFC Cup in 2018 and this year she played in the Women’s World Floorball Championship Qualifications in Bangkok.
How did you start playing floorball and how long have you played?
– I started playing floorball when I was 10 years old and the reason I started it was because my sister, my cousins and all my friends played it.
How did you join the national team?
– In 2016 I got the offer to go on try-outs for team Thailand, during that time I was injured so I had to forgot the offer. Two years later in 2018 I contacted Kennet Koh and then went to Thailand in April for try-outs.
How do you prepare for the WFC 2019?
– My preparation for the WFC is to train regularly with my new team that I recently signed for and of course the mental preparation.
