The 2010 Men's World Floorball Championships was the eighth such world championships in men's floorball. The tournament was held from 4 December to 11 December 2010 in the cities of Helsinki, and Vantaa, Finland.
This was the first world championships under the International Floorball Federation's (IFF) FIFA-like continental qualification system. A total of 32 countries had registered for this event, which is the most nations to ever register for an IFF-sanctioned world championship event. The previous record was 29 for the 2008 Men's World Floorball Championships.
Qualifying
Under the IFF's new qualification system, the 32 countries registered for the world championships had to qualify for only 16 spots. 8 of these spots had already been pre-determined, with the top 7 teams from the 2008 Men's World Floorball Championships A-Division and the top team from the B-Division automatically qualifying. This left just 8 spots for the other 24 registered countries.
The countries already qualified are as follows:
Asia/Oceania
Qualifying in the Asia/Oceanian region for the world championships will be overseen by the Asia Oceania Floorball Confederation (AOFC).
Only 3 out of 5 registered AOFC countries qualified. The 5 countries were as follows:
