The IFBA World Broomball Championships (WBC), formerly the "World Broomball Championships", is the premiere international competition for the sport of broomball and is organized and administered by the International Federation of Broomball Associations (IFBA). The competition is organized every even-numbered year and is held every two years in international locations using the skills and expertise of various host cities and member associations. Teams named after their respective nation such as "Team Canada" are monikers earned by the team which has won the most recent national tournament in their country of origin.[1]
Unlike the provincial and national championships in Ontario and Canada, teams from a variety of countries apply rather than qualify to compete in the World Broomball Championships and there is no need to compete for entry.[1] Most events now have a minimum of 48 teams and well over 1100 athletes attend. The vast majority of broomball players and teams are based in Canada or the USA and as a result most of the championships to date have been held in this part of the world.
Traditionally World Championships see teams enter from Canada, United States, Italy, Japan, Switzerland, France and Australia. Teams representing Austria, Slovenia and Germany, have also taken part but due to limited player numbers and broomball programs these nations are not able to attend each World Championship. Australia, Japan and Canada have sent teams to every World Championship.
