The 2020 Bandy World Championship was to be an international sports tournament between men's national teams among bandy playing nations. It was to be the fortieth Bandy World Championship. While the Division B tournament was held from 1 to 6 March 2020,[2] the Division A tournament was postponed a number of times and finally cancelled on 1 March 2022.

The Division A tournament was supposed to be held from 29 March to 5 April 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] The Division A tournament was cancelled on 15 September 2020.[4] The FIB later announced that the 2020 Division A tournament in Irkutsk would be finalised in October 2021, and the subsequent World Championship in Syktyvkar would be played in 2022. On 24 August 2021, Sweden announced its withdrawals from the competition, due to the continued threat of COVID-19. Finland and Norway had already made the same decisions earlier.[5] Subsequently, on 30 August 2021, the FIB decided to postpone the championships once again, now to March - April 2022,[6] which would be the 2022 Bandy World Championship.

Host selection

[edit]

The 2019 tournament was originally supposed to be held in Irkutsk in Russia,[7] but the decision was reconsidered [8] due to a failure to meet the demands on an arena accepted for international play[9] and the tournament was held in Vänersborg in Sweden instead.[10]

For 2020, the new Arena Baikal will be ready for play, and therefore, this year's world championship will be held in Irkutsk. Some games will probably be played in surrounding cities too.[11]

The last time the World Championship was held in Irkutsk, was in 2014.
