Thus, we hereby officially announce that according to point 12.1 IISHF Constitution the IISHF Presidium has imposed the following official deadline for all IISHF National Member Associations to inform all their clubs:

• about all now updated status for the open IISHF Title Events 2026 (as above)

• to inform and remind their clubs about the deadline 15 November 2025 for applications of the open IISHF Title Events 2026

• to inform and remind their clubs that without applications until 15 November 2025 that the relevant IISHF Title Events 2026 might not take place

• that IISHF will announce the updated listing of IISHF Title Events latest 30 November 2025.

• Please note that when we have passed the deadline of 31 October 2025, where IISHF would normally announce the application with the standard 3 weeks deadline for any other club/NMA to make their bid for the same IISHF Title Event this will then not be done. IISHF generally encourage early applications for the IISHF Title Events.

• The IISHF National Member Associations are also requested (as official deadline according to point 12.1 IISHF Constitution) to provide the IISHF Presidium until Sunday 12 October 2025 a copy of their website publication (or other way of information sent to the clubs).
