The Great Britain Bandy Association (GBBA) is the governing body of the sport of bandy in the United Kingdom. It is based in The Fens part of Cambridgeshire, East Anglia.[1] Formerly, the federation was named Bandy Federation of England.[2] After some years with less activity, the federation was restarted and given the name England Bandy Federation in January 2017. In September 2017 the present name was adopted, as the federation widened its scope to all of the UK.
The men's Great Britain national bandy team made its debut at the 2019 Bandy World Championship. A Great Britain women's national bandy team has also been formed and made its international debut in 2022 at the 2022 Women's Bandy World Championship.[3]
The Association has the purpose to have a full-size indoor bandy field in the Littleport Ice Stadium, which is yet to be funded (2018).[4] Apart from that, rink bandy will be arranged where there are no full-size bandy rinks.
