Mike Bushell plays floorball in the Cotswolds
BBC Breakfast, Saturday 30 January 2010: Mike Bushell visits Chipping Campden school in the Cotswolds to play the sport imported from Sweden that has taken the region by storm - floorball.
All the kids attending the event and the GBFUA thank you Mike for his time and for playing floorball!
Huge thank you to Barry Knight our Marcoms for organising this event and big thank you to Ms France (Headmistress) of Chipping Campden School for actively supporting this activity and finally to all the children and participants for making this such an excellent event!

Mike presents the sport on Breakfast on Fridays, Saturdays, some Sundays and in the week when Chris isn't around.
On Saturday mornings, Mike presents Breakfast's extended sports bulletin, and is on BBC One for an extra hour until 10am. He then stays on into the afternoon to present the sport on the BBC News channel.
What's more, if the mainstream sports don't float your boat, then Mike's slots are worth staying around for - after each Saturday morning bulletin, he puts on his shorts and profiles an alternative sport or activity that doesn't usually get the limelight. The idea is that Mike represents the beginner with a view to getting people off the sofa and trying something new at a weekend. He's now tried over 125 sports or activities! The highlights include sailing up the Thames with Ben Ainslie, learning backhand with Serena Williams, rockitball, rolling down a hill in a giant hamster ball, (known as zorbing), husky racing in Berkshire, joining the Indian Kabbaddi team at the Asian games in Doha, indoor sky diving, thundercat racing, bobsleighing, air-racing, ice cricket, polo, shinty, swamp soccer, and shin kicking!
