The 2023 Women's World Floorball Championships was the 14th edition of this competition. It was held from 2 to 10 December 2023 in Singapore, marking the first time that it was not in Europe since 2005.[1] Sweden were the 8-time defending champion, and they made it nine with a 6–4 win over Finland in the final.[2]

The tournament was criticized by sports journalists for poor promotion and consequently low attendance.[3][4] Despite this, it was considered a success by the IFF.[5]
