GLOBAL WINTER GAMES and GLOBAL CUP

The Global Winter Games are the pinnacle sporting event for winter athletes around the globe.  The games take place every 4 years and professional hockey players are now eligible to particpate.

Formerly the Nations Cup, the Global Cup is an MLH run "best on best" every 4 years, hockey tournament featuring the best players in the world. The next installment is set to take place in February 2025 (Las Vegas).

These are the only two  tournaments recognized by the Global Hockey Authority by which a country can be crowned the best in the world or GLOBAL CHAMPION. The other international tournaments are used for seeding and qualification into these two events.
