International Federation of Roller Sports
2007 Roller Inline Hockey World Championships
Initial Details Announced

13th Men's Roller Inline Hockey World Championship
1 ~ 7 July 2007, Bilboa, Spain

6th Women's Roller Inline Hockey World Championship
8 ~ 14 July 2006, Bilboa, Spain

George Pickard the president of the FIRS Comite International Roller Inline Hockey has today issued the following statement concerning the 2007 FIRS Roller Inline Hockey World Championships.

Dear FIRS Friends of Inline Roller Hockey:

CIRILH has this week received confirmation from the National Roller Skating Federation of Spain, that their Bilboa City Organizing Committee for the 2007 FIRS World Inline Hockey Championships in Bilboa, Spain have accepted the FIRS recommended dates for the next year's World Inline Hockey World Championships. The Men's championship will practice on July 1st, Round-robin July 2-3-4 and medal finals (single elimination) July 5-6-7, 2007. The Women's championship will follow immediately in the same rink, with practice starting July 8, Round-robin July 9-10-11 and the medal finals begin July 12 -13 -14, 2007.

For the Senior World Inline Hockey Championships, FIRS will continue to use the same seeding plan as initiated during this past year, with the top 8 teams for 2006 going into Group 1 and the remaining teams into Group 2 (two pools for each consisting of 3 games maximum). The lowest finishing team in each of the individual pools of Group 1 will drop down into Group 2 for the FIRS NATIONAL TEAM WORLD CUP competition (with medals), and the top teams from each pool of Group 2 will join Group 1 for World Championship play. This formula keeps the less experienced World Championship teams apart from the strongest, yet every team that enters the FIRS World Inline Hockey Championship is on a direct course toward the World Championship Gold Medal. If you have questions concerning this procedure, please email me and I will send you a complete description of the procedures.

Because of time constraints, the men's FIRS World Inline Hockey Championships for 2007 must be confined to no more than 18 teams. An increase in men's team participation over what was experienced in 2006, in my opinion, is not overly optimistic, since the last World Championship in Spain in 2001 consisted of 16 men's teams. CIRILH is in receipt of indications from Asia as well as Europe of much greater interest in future world championships for inline hockey. All teams participating in last year's world championship will be given priority for entry (13 teams) and new team entry will be assigned to the world championships according to the order of their confirmed and paid applications. It is anticipated that a 60 day deadline will be established, after which any remaining open slots will then be filled with newcomers should there be less than 13 men's teams returning from the 2006 world championships. It does not appear to be a potential problem with accepting all interested National Women team entries.

I have plans to visit Bilboa (located in North-western Spain, near the border of France) during the first week of December 2006 while in Spain for the FIRS Congress scheduled for December 2 in Murcia, Spain during the time of the FIRS Roller Figure Skating World Championship. Afterward, I will have more information pertaining to hotel availability and costs, which I intend to immediately share with you.

2006 World Inline Hockey Championships
Detroit, Michigan, USA
 
15 July 2006 ~ 22 July 2006
 
Bulletin #2 - 20 March 2006

A state-of-the-art, four rink hockey facility, which is five miles distant from the Detroit Metropolitan Airport has been selected for the 2006 World Inline Hockey Championships. This is an international airport, with some direct flights from Europe and Asia. The name of the arena, which is located in a Western suburb of Detroit, is:

TAYLOR SPORTSPLEX
13333 Telegraph Road;
Taylor, Michigan 48180 USA;
www.taylorsportsplex.com

During the period of the World Championships, two of the four available hockey rinks within the Sportsplex will be used exclusively for FIRS World Championship teams. The other two smaller rinks will continue in use by the AAU for the USA National Junior Olympics Inline Hockey competitions, which resume in all four rinks once the FIRS teams have departed on July 23, 2006.

Please note that the FIRS World Championships for 2006 have been reduced from 11 days to 8 days for the men and 7 days for the women. This new schedule eliminates 2 days from the Round Robin pool play and now only schedules 1 day of practice before the Championships. This revised schedule will be used on a trial basis this year in an effort to alleviate some of the cost associated with attending the inline hockey world championships, as well as giving a more meaningful competition for teams not previously in the medal round play.
