Inline Skater Hockey edit

Inline skater hockey is a roller sport and team sport. It is similar to inline hockey, with the most noticeable difference of using a plastic ball instead of a puck. While primarily played using inline skates, quad skates (such as found in rink hockey) are allowed.[1]

A game is played by two teams, and each team is permitted to have 5 players on the pitch, usually four outfield players and a goalkeeper. The rink (40m x 20m) is divided in two halves with a goal in each end. A standard game lasts 3 periods of 20 minutes each. At international tournaments the lengths of the games may deviate, depending on the amount of participating teams.

Like ice hockey, inline skater hockey is a contact sport and has a similar set of rules of the game with few noticeable variations. These mainly derive from the much smaller standard rink size (800 m2 compared to 1,800 m2 in ice hockey). In skater hockey the game is played with no "offside" and no "icing", a "free hit" instead of a bully. Lastly physical contact is slightly limited and referees show yellow, red and black cards. Fighting is strictly forbidden and severely punished.

IISHF European Championships edit

IISHF European Championships are international Title Events (class A tournaments) for national teams. In general each member country has the right to one spot at each IISHF European Championship. A European Championship can only take place with teams from a minimum of four (4) different nations. From these minimum 4 nations at least two nations had to be placed on place 1 – 4 at the previous European Championship. European Championships take place every year in the months from September to November (both months included).[2]

Being an independent sport the European Championships are conducted in Autumn at the end of most national skater hockey seasons. They are also conducted in a time when ice hockey players have returned to ice and are commonly unable to participate. This serves to underline the sport being independent and avoids manifesting a sport hierarchy as in ice hockey.

Men European Championship (MCH) edit

The Men European Championship has been played 21 times in the history of skater hockey. In 2020 and 2021 they were cancelled to the COVID-19 pandemic. The four nations Denmark, Germany, Great Britain, and Switzerland participated in all Men European Championships since 1997. The 2023 Men European Championship will take place from 16. - 19.11.2023 in Givisiez, Switzerland.

IISHF Men Challenge Cup (MCC) edit

In June 2011 the IISHF held its first "Men Invitation Cup" for second-tier teams which had not won their domestic championships but rather finished second, third and fourth places, alike the UEFA Europa League[6][circular reference] in football. Starting 2013 the Men Invitation Cup was reorganized into a "Cup Winners Cup" and designed in a way that the winners of national cup competitions would automatically qualify alike the UEFA Cup Winners Cup[7][circular reference] in football. Starting 2018 IISHF redesigned this tournament back into the format of the "Men Invitation Cup" but named it "IISHF Men Challenge Cup" as the focus was on inviting teams to international games to help them challenge heir national title holders domestically. This tournament basically corresponds to the IIHF Continental Cup.[8][circular reference]

The Cup is played every year during one weekend with games from Friday until Sunday. Each team plays 6 to 8 games during these three days. Since 2011 a total of 10 Men European Challenge Cups were played. The 2020 and 2021 Men Challenge Cups were cancelled due to the COVI9-19 pandemic.
