International football competition
The 1983 Intercontinental Cup was the inaugural roller hockey tournament known as the Intercontinental Cup, played in February 1983. This first edition saw a very different format compared with the other editions, as there were 8 teams (2 teams from Europe, 2 from Brazil, 2 from Argentina and 2 from Chile) playing a round robin pool, each team competing against every other. FC Barcelona won the tournament, above FC Porto.[1] This edition wasn't official until it was recognize by World Skate in 2018.[2]
