World Junior Ringette Championships
Script error: No such module "AfC submission catcheck". The World Junior Ringette Championships (WJRC), alternatively known as the "U19 World Ringette Championship", was an international ringette tournament organized by the International Ringette Federation (IRF) in 2009 and 2012 for elite international junior ringette athletes. It was run as a separate tournament from the World Ringette Championships, an international ringette tournament which was initially restricted to elite senior ringette athletes.[1] The World Junior Ringette Championships no longer functions as an event, having since merged in 2013 with the main World Ringette Championships program where both Senior and Junior divisions now exist.
The 2009 World Junior Ringette Championships were hosted in the city of Prague in the Czech Republic while the 2012 World Junior Ringette Championships were hosted in London, Ontario, Canada. Competing nations included Team Canada Junior,[2] Team Finland Junior,[3] Team USA junior, Team France Junior, and Team Russia Junior, though only the Canadians and Finns competed in the first tournament in WJRC 2009.
During the 2013 World Ringette Championships the U19 World Ringette Championship became known as the "Junior Pool" competition where the winning team is now awarded the Juuso Wahlsten Trophy, first introduced in 2019.
