China Bandy Federation
China Bandy Federation, CBF, was founded on 13 December 2014. The Chinese Ice Hockey Association joined the Federation of International Bandy (FIB) in 2010[1] and governed bandy in China until it was replaced by the CBF.[2][3] The fact that the Chinese Ice Hockey Association is still listed at the official FIB website as a member of the Federation of International Bandy as of March 2016,[4] is because that part of the homepage not having been updated since January 2012. The four latest members (three of which participated in the 2016 World Championship), Germany, Somalia, Czech Republic and Denmark have not been added either.
The federation was founded at the initiative and cooperation of China Sustainable Society, Nordic Sustainable Organization, Nordic Vikings, Hokay, Harbin Sport University, Chengde City and Beijing International. The Federaton is looking to set up teams in Chengde, Harbin, Changchun, Qiqihaer, Jiamusi, Funyuan (close to the Russian border and Khabarovsk, where there's a professional Russian bandy club) as well as Beijing.[5] China Bandy is mainly financed by private resources. The City of Chengde, the Federation of International Bandy and some Russian and Swedish companies has helped starting up the organisation.[6]
The offices of the Federation is located at No.8, Yuyuantan South Road in Haidian District in the Chinese capital Beijing. The general manager is Per-Erik Holmström and the deputy general manager is Rex Long Wang.[7] The Federation is governing the China men's national bandy team, the China women's national bandy team[8] and domestic games.
