Our Story

World Rink Hockey was established on May 26, 2020, born from a love of pond hockey and a desire to participate in tournaments across Europe.

After visiting Helsinki in Finland and experiencing outdoor hockey for the first time, Ivan decided to assemble a local team to participate in pond hockey tournaments held annually across the European continent.

However, finding like-minded individuals, who were willing to travel to other countries to play hockey, proved to be a challenge. That's when the idea of bringing together people from various locations and making it work, despite the distance, emerged.

World Rink Hockey is much more than just a hockey team - it's a vibrant community that brings the world together through the love of hockey.Experiencing the world through our own eyes, immersing ourselves in different cultures, and forming lifelong international friendships.

Our Core Values

1. Be a Bud
We've got each other's backs, both on and off the rink. Respect and camaraderie form the core of our "code."
2. Be Committed
We understand the time and effort WR Hockey requires and we always collaborate to make it work.
3. Be Joyful
We play for the love of the game.
4. Be You
We celebrate our differences considering them our greatest strength.

This winter, we're hitting pause.

After much consideration, we have made the difficult decision to take a break this winter 😢
The unpredictability of the weather has deeply impacted our planning. Last winter, many of the pond hockey tournaments we love were canceled or postponed due to warm temperatures, and the uncertainty of what lies ahead this season has made it challenging to commit fully to any events.
While we’ll miss gathering with the team to play the game we love, this break gives us an opportunity to reflect and explore how we can adapt to these changing conditions. Our goal is to find new ways to come together and keep the spirit of hockey alive, no matter the challenges.Stay tuned 😉
