Bandy World Championship 1991

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bandy World Championship 1991 was contested between 8 men's bandy playing nations. The championship was played in Finland from 17 March - 24 March 1991. Canada, Hungary and the Netherlands made their championship debuts. The Soviet Union became champions in what would become its last tournament; less than a year later, the Soviet Union was history and would be replaced in international bandy by Russia.
