On the 10th of December 2020 Ukrainian Floorball Federation (UFF) was recognised as a subject of the Olympic movement in Ukraine.

The decision was made at General Assembly of the Ukrainian National Olympic Committee with 106 votes in favour one against and two abstained. UFF is only the second federation after the Ukrainian Automobile Federation to be granted this status as sport that is not on the Olympic programme.

The status is a formality but it gives possibilities to increase cooperation with Ukrainian National Olympic Committee and its member associations and is another important step in establishing Floorball as a leading team sport in Ukraine, says Tamuz Hidir, IFF CB member and UFF representative.

The list of sports in Ukraine that are Subjects of the Olympic Movement are found here! (floorball to be added to the list). The Ukrainian Olympic Committee was founded on the 22nd of December 1990 and is since 2005 headed by the former Olympic Champion Mr. Sergey Bubka who is also Chairman of IOC Athletes Entourage Commission. The Ukrainian NOC is also celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.
