Floorball at the World Games
Floorball was contested at the 1997 World Games as an invitational sport.[1] It returned to the World Games as an official sport in the 2017 edition. Only a men's tournament was featured in the 1997, 2017 and 2022 editions. Starting with the 2025 edition, a women's tournament is held too.
All four men's tournaments so far have been won by Sweden.[2]
