Russian_Government_Cup
Russian Government Cup was a tournament for national teams in bandy, arranged in Russia every other year from 1972[1] until 2012. The cup has not been played since 2012.[citation needed]
When the Bandy World Championships were held every other year, this tournament was held in around the same time of the year (February/March) in the years when there was no World Championships. Starting in 2003, it was arranged in December instead.[citation needed]
