The University of Denver (DU) is silent on a late Tuesday evening, snow has blanketed the campus, but there is no relief from the cold in Joy Burns Arena, an intense showdown is about to occur pitting Fur Traders versus Weak Team. The fluorescent lights buzz as referees blow whistles and players struggle to stay on their feet, this is broomball.

Intramural Sports at DU have always been semi-popular but broomball proves to be unlike any other team sport on campus. Broomball combines elements of hockey and soccer to make for a very different experience.
