History

Bohemia, then a part of Austria-Hungary, was in its own right an early member of the Ligue International de Hockey sur Glace, which administered ice hockey and bandy in the years before the First World War.[1]

The Czech Association of Bandy was founded in 2013 and became a member of the Federation of International Bandy in 2014.

On 6 January 2014 the Czech Republic participated in a four nation tournament in Davos, a centenary celebration of the European Championship of 1913. The other teams were the Netherlands, Hungary, and Germany.[2][3][4]

19 September 2015 the team took part in a rink bandy tournament in Nymburk.[5]

The country made the World Championship debut in the 2016 tournament.[6]
