IIHF Development Cup
The IIHF Development Cup is an annual international ice hockey tournament sanctioned by the International Ice Hockey Federation. It is designed for national teams that do not compete in the IIHF World Championships. Since countries are required to have an Olympic-size ice rink and a domestic league to play in the World Championships, the Development Cup is the highest-level international tournament available to IIHF members without a league or Olympic-sized rink.
The first edition was held in Canillo, Andorra in 2017 with Morocco winning the title. In 2022, the first Women's Development Cup was held in Kuwait City, Kuwait and was won by Colombia.
