Bandy World Championship Y-19 is a Youth Bandy World Championship up to the age of 19 years. Usually, only the core bandy playing nations are taking part.
History
The first Bandy World Championship Y-19 was held in 1968 and it has been held every two years since then. In 1994 and 1996 it was Y20 teams instead.[1]
The designation is sometimes given as U-19 instead of Y-19, but the meaning is the same. Only players under the age of 19 take part.
In 2014, the World Championship Y19 was played in Oslo.[2] Russia beat Finland in the final and Sweden won the bronze medals.[3]
