An exciting indoor sport especially popular in the Scandinavian countries and also Europa, the WUC also travelled to Asia landing in Singapore in 2014. From 2022 onwards, Floorball will be played in a University World Cup format, with university teams competing instead of national squads. 

The History of Floorball in FISU

Floorball has been part of the programme of the World University Championships since 2002. The first two editions organised respectively in Göteborg (SWE) and Bern (SUI) included only men's tournaments, and since the 3rd World University Floorball Championship organised in Kuortane (FIN), women have been competing for the title as well. With 194 athletes taking part in 2010, Umea (SWE) hosted the 4th edition and set a new record of participation. The 5th edition took place in 2012 in Prague (CZE).
