A good grip tape is essential for a stable and comfortable grip on your stick. This improves your control and precision throughout the game. A worn or poorly fitted grip tape can lead to reduced ball control and an increased risk of mistakes when it matters most.
We offer a wide range of grip tapes to suit all players, from beginners and children to seniors and elite players who demand top performance.
Material & feel – how grip tape affects your game
The material of the grip tape determines how it feels and performs during play. Grip tapes offer different levels of tackiness and sweat absorption.
Thicker grip tapes provide extra cushioning and comfort, which is especially appreciated by juniors and players who train for longer sessions. Thinner grip tapes, on the other hand, offer better feel and control, which is often preferred by experienced players who want maximum precision in their game.
The best grip tape for you depends on your specific needs and preferences. Players with sweaty hands should choose sweat-absorbing grip tapes with high tackiness to ensure the stick does not slip.
Replacing grip tape
We recommend replacing your grip tape every 4–6 weeks if you play frequently, or when the grip starts to feel smooth and worn. A fresh grip noticeably improves performance.
Guide: How to replace grip tape on your floorball stick – Step by step
When replacing grip tape on your floorball stick, start wrapping at the knob and work your way down toward the blade. Overlap the tape evenly by about one third of its width for best results. Make sure to wrap it firmly but not too tightly. Read more in our guide on how to do it.

There are no specific rules from the IFF regarding grip tape, but it is important that the grip is secure and does not slip during play. Safety always comes first.
