The 1998 World Ringette Championships (1998 WRC) was an international ringette tournament initially meant to be the 5th (X) World Ringette Championships and was originally scheduled to be hosted in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada.[citation needed]. However, a promotional five-game ringette "Summit Series" tour of Europe was organized instead with a series of games between Team Canada,[1] and Team Finland[2] between February 27 and March 7, 1998.[3][4]
Officially dubbed the "1998 Summit Series / EuroTour", the games were contested in Finland, Sweden, Germany, and France. The event was organized by the International Ringette Federation (IRF). The 5th World Ringette Championships took place the following year at the 2000 World Ringette Championships.
