The International Ice Hockey Federation did not accept Belarus for the 2027 Senior and Junior World Championships. The IIHF referred to its own decision from July, in which the organization's disciplinary committee found no legal basis for the reintegration of Belarus. Canada, the host of the 2027 World Youth Cup, has also announced that it will not allow the teams of Russia and Belarus to compete in Edmonton and Red Air. The IIHF has yet to make a decision regarding Russia. The organization said it was taking "necessary steps" and "exploring all available avenues" after the Russians' successful appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
