Ice hockey is a nascent sport in Armenia, but it is already seven years that the country has its own federation and a team that has regularly participated in world championships. This year Armenia is hosting its first-ever big international ice hockey tournament as Yerevan has been entrusted with organizing the 2010 International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) Division III World Championships.

I hope we can have a team decent enough to play against the top teams in eastern Europe and North America. Can only hope for Armenia vs. Canada final in world hockey cup, one can dream right? Go Armenia! And congrats on all your achievements.
