Calle Karlsson, captain of X-Stream IBK, is presented with the 2009 Canada Cup elite championship by Canada Cup co-chairs Juha Mikkola and Johanna Kytölä, following their 6:5 victory over the Czech Republic's TJ Sokol Jaroměř.

The 2009 Canada Cup Floorball Championship was the sixth such championship contested in the tournament's history. The tournament took place over 15 to 17 May 2009 at York University in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

California's X-Stream IBK defeated the Czech Republic's TJ Sokol Jaroměř 6:5 in the championship match to capture the gold medal in the elite division.

Canadian teams swept the rest of the 6 divisions, including the brand new high school division, which was won by the Centre Dufferin Royals, and back-to-back championships for both Manitoba in the ladies division and Cambridge FC in the recreational division.

The tournament also saw its first international referees take part, as 4 International Floorball Federation (IFF) officials from the Czech Republic helped bring the refereeing up to international standard.

The competition also saw a withdrawal in the Hammer Conference, where the Georgian national team was slated to play but withdrew due to Visa problems.

As well, the tournament saw its first headline sponsor, as the competition was presented by Source for Sports.

Playoffs

At this point in the competition, the top 8 clubs from all 3 conferences are ranked and placed into their respective playoff brackets. Draws between clubs were settled by points, wins, head-to-head match-ups, goal differential, goals against, goals for, and finally a coin toss.

Due to the withdrawal of the Georgian national team, the Ottawa Blizzard played UHC Lenzburg in a one-match playoff for the 8th and final playoff spot. This was decided by the tournament jury, which concluded that the highest placed 3rd place club in either the Alpha or Platinum conference would play the last placed club in the Hammer conference.
