Men's U19 World Floorball Championships 2021 Qualifications cancelled
The IFF ExCo has decided to cancel the remaining Men’s U19 WFC 2021 Qualification events in Europe and the Americas, due to the continuing Covid-19 crisis. The AOFC group has already been cancelled earlier.

– It is very disappointing that the Covid-19 situation continues to prevent us from holding international events. For the IFF Member Associations, the logistics of international travel at this time, especially with junior players, is too great, and the focus for most countries is on re-establishing their national competitions, which the IFF fully supports, said Sarah Mitchell, IFF Event Manager.

As earlier decided by the IFF Central Board, in the situation where qualification events cannot be held, the qualifying teams will be determined based on current rankings. For the U19 Men this means that the following teams will qualify from each region:

AOFC – Australia, Japan, New Zealand
AMER – Canada
EUR – Poland, Russia, Slovenia
