Bandy Federation of Denmark

The Bandy Federation of Denmark (Danish: Dansk Bandy Forbund) was created in 2014 by two Danish brothers living in Sweden and playing bandy in Swedish clubs, Ole Gyldenlöve and Cristian Gyldenlöve. It became a member of the Federation of International Bandy the same year. They hoped to be able to set up a Danish national team for the World Championship.[1]

Bandy has been played in Denmark before. A Danish national team took part in the bandy competition of the Nordic Games in 1917 and was also invited to the Nordic Games in 1922, when they however declined to participate.[2]
