Nine years later, in 2026, the Men's and Women's World Hockey Ball Championships will return to the Czech Republic!

For the first time in history, this prestigious event will take place in Ostrava. The best hockeyball players from all over the world will perform from June 20 to June 28 on both hockey rinks of the Ostravar Arena.

It is possible to move between the halls using a purchased ticket, which must be beeped at the turnstile/ticket reader when leaving the arena in order to be able to re-enter the venue.

16 men's and 8 women's teams from different parts of the world will compete at the World Championships in Ostrava. Fans can look forward to teams from Armenia, Bermuda, Finland, France, Haiti, Italy, Cayman Islands, Canada, Lebanon, Portugal, Greece, Slovakia, Switzerland, USA, Great Britain and the home teams from the Czech Republic. One of the main goals of the championship is to break the attendance record. The most attended championship so far was held in Pardubice in 2017 (72,520 visitors). Pardubice also set a record for attendance for a single match, with 7,592 spectators watching the match (the Czech Republic vs India).
