The Ringette World Club Championship (RWCC) was an international ringette competition organized by the International Ringette Federation (IRF).[1] It featured the top teams from Canada's National Ringette League (NRL), Finland's Ringeten SM-sarja (now called "SM Ringette"), and Sweden's Ringette Dam-SM. The World Club Championship was only held twice, the first time in 2008 and the last time in 2011.
In 2013 the IRF cancelled the 2014 Championship which was planned to be organized in Sweden.[2] After the original two international tournaments, the club competition was discontinued due to financial difficulties preventing teams from participating.[3]
